Mammalogy - Home School
Jester Park, Polk County
Friday, April 19, 2019
Grades K-5
Each program will focus on a different “Ology”
or scientific field of study giving students a variety of fun experiences in
science learning. We will begin with a set of hands-on learning activities to
introduce learners to our topic for the day followed by a field session to view
nature first-hand.
Mammalogy - Learn about mammal’s unique adaptations for survival. We’ll study skins, skulls and scat followed by a hike to search for mammals at Jester Park.
Registration - All
programs are free but pre-registration is required the Tuesday before each
program. Space is limited.
Parents - You are welcome, but
not required, to attend any and all visits with your children and act as a
chaperone. If you choose to attend, we would like to stress the importance
of your active participation. Please
be willing to help with all children, not just your own. We also ask that
you turn off all cell phones and other distractions for the duration of the
visit.
Siblings - Children who are
not registered for the program should not be brought to class, this includes all
siblings.
Program
Times - Please be punctual, as your child
may miss some vital information at the start if they are late, and may also
cause a distraction for those who are on time. If you will not be
attending a visit, be sure to pick your child up on time as well.
