The Educational Resources page serves as a teaching tool for educators to use with their students. Teachers can use free interactive, educational activities to help students learn about nature, wildlife, healthy living, citizen science and more, while exploring the Island virtually. We invite all educators to use the worksheets and videos below to help students learn from the natural world. For information about our non-virtual school based education programs, please click here.
If you are interested in hosting a virtual classroom with one of our experienced educators please email Jhanelle Mullings, Public Programs Coordinator.
