VIRTUAL TRIPS & PRE-VISITS
-
Virtual visits may be scheduled for 30minutes - 1 hour. We may end early or go a little over based on student engagement and class time.
-
Pre-made videos on the subject matter can be watched ahead of time or during the virtual visit. These videos average about 10 minutes. If played during the virtual visit, we will stop throughout the video for discussion with the class. ​
-
Animal ambassador meet-and-greets are optional and may be included in virtual trips and pre-visits.
-
A virtual pre-visit allows us to engage students before their in-person trip. We go over the park background, student curiosities, and flow of the trip.
-
Optional classroom activities are provided on the links below. These related student activities and resources can be used to continue making connections in your classroom.
