We are offering two virtual field trip programs - "Using the Stream Valley" and "Animal Adaptations." A trip includes a pre-visit video, a live chat with Q&A from student-generated questions, and optional classroom activities.

STEP 1: Pre-visit Video. Have your class watch at least one video tour from the program of your choice.
STEP 2: Questions. Students should generate questions based on the video. Send the questions to the Carrie Murray guide before the live chat. These questions will be answered in the Live Chat Q&A.
STEP 3: Live Chat. Schedule a Carrie Murray guide as a guest in your virtual classroom for 1 or 2 10-30 minute visits. This will be a Q&A session based off the students questions. An animal ambassador meet-and-greet is optional. Live chats can be scheduled Monday-Thursday from 10 am-3 pm and require at least 1 week notice.
STEP 5: Optional Classroom Activities. Related student activities and resources can be found on the website to continue making connections in your classroom.
