Elementary age kids: come explore three woodland habitats in different stages of being: open shrub, young forest, and mature forest with Allison Gergely, Birds of Vermont Museum Educator.
Look up, down, over, across. We’ll observe and identify the general elements of each, and gain an understanding of the character of forest structure (vertical and horizontal). Through drawing, predicting, and “story telling”, we begin to understand the importance of forests as shelters, food sources, territorial regions, and resilient landscapes, each connected to our local wildlife.
Ages 6-10 yrs. with adult. • Great outing for a homeschool group, single family, or grandkids with their grandparent.
About 1.5 hour
Max: 6 people • Masks: please bring them and wear them if within 6′ of each other.
$5 (free for Museum members)
