Students will explore the prairie, forest, and wetland

nature discovery. Students will look closely at where things live and how they
survive. They may use dip nets to catch aquatic critters; learn about amazing
birds, and track mighty mammals. Expect to play camouflage games, discover
animal trails, and learn about predators and the prey they hunt.
