CURRICULUM TRAINING
Learn how to use your school
habitat as an outdoor learning lab for your students. This training
is targeted to both teachers and volunteer leaders. Using the 4-H Wildlife
Stewards curriculum for both K-2nd grade and 3-5th grade, workshop instructors
will demonstrate some of the lessons and activities from these curriculum
guides. All the lessons tie directly the school habitat project and
are matched to the Oregon Education benchmarks. The curriculum integrates
the concepts of habitat, soils and water, plants, insects and wildlife
into easy-to-use math and science lessons.
The trainings are conducted
on-site at 4-H Wildlife Stewards Member Schools using the school Habitat
Education Site. 4-H Wildlife Stewards Member Schools must recruit 8
or more teachers, 4-H Wildlife Stewards and/or parent volunteers in
order to receive a workshop delivered by Oregon State University Extension
Faculty and staff. Each participant will receive a curriculum book.
4-H Wildlife Stewards training staff will target the training to each
individual school’s needs and interests. Workshops are 3, 4 or
6 hours long depending on the interest of the school.
If you are interested in
hosting a 4-H Wildlife Stewards Curriculum Training at your school,
please complete the 4-H Wildlife Stewards Curriculum Training
Interest Form. We will make every effort to set up a curriculum
training for your school on the times and days you request.
