Our programs can be tailored for any age group and any indoor or outdoor setting, and are complementary with lessons on conservation, ecology and natural history, food webs, predator / prey relationships, senses (sight and hearing especially), flight, evolutionary adaptations, local wildlife, and more!

​

Our programs also address key curriculum standards in Pennsylvania, including the following:

​

Keystone standards (in effect until 6/30/2025): 

• BIO.B.4.1.1 Describe the levels of ecological organization (i.e., organism, population, community, ecosystem, biome, and biosphere).

• BIO.B.4.2.2 Describe biotic interactions in an ecosystem (e.g., competition, predation, symbiosis).

 

The STEELS standards (effective 7/1/2025):

• 4th grade Life Science: 3.1.4.B  Use a model to describe that animals receive different types of information through their senses, process the information in their brain, and respond to the information in different ways.

• 6th – 8th Life Science: 3.1.6-8.K Develop a model to describe the cycling of matter and flow of energy among living and nonliving parts of an ecosystem.

• 9th – 12th Life Science: 3.1.9-12.M Evaluate the claims, evidence, and reasoning that the complex interactions in ecosystems maintain relatively consistent numbers and types of organisms in stable conditions, but changing conditions may result in a new ecosystem.

• 9th – 12th Earth and Space: 3.4.9-12.E Plan and conduct an investigation utilizing environmental data about a local environmental issue.

 

Common Core Connection: 

• Interdependent Relationships in Ecosystems: Animals, Plants and Their Environment
