The Secret Life of Birds

This course will demonstrate and describe some of Missouri’s birds and habitats in which they live. It will provide field experiences and hands-on activities that can be used in classroom curriculum strategies. The instructors will guide participants through activities at various grade levels and subject areas to illustrate connections to curriculum, Missouri Learning Standards, and assessment opportunities. There will be field trips each day and will include: Duck Creek and Otter Slough Conservation Areas, and Mingo National Wildlife Refuge. This workshop will be three long, but very fun days. There will be 2.5 CEUs available from Southeast Missouri State University. Please contact Bridget Jackson at bridget.jackson@mdc.mo.gov for additonal information or to register.
