Overview

Do you like to get outside and explore your backyard? Would you like to learn about bats, snakes, moose, and even whales?! In New Hampshire Wildlife, we’ll learn about local forests, mountains, wetlands, freshwater, and coastal habitats and the animals that live there. We will make animal-themed crafts, keep a nature journal, play games, and get outside and explore the habitats around us to look for wildlife.

This enrichment experience will meet weekly on Thursdays at 10:00am. The session will run for six weeks starting the week of June 19th.

During this course, you will learn career-related skills and earn a badge for this accomplishment. A badge is a digital certification of your career-related learning that you can share on social media and higher education platforms, or with colleges, potential employers, peers, and colleagues.
