9:00 AM - 3:00 PM

Winter got you down? Learn how animals survive and thrive during Northern Illinois winters at The Morton Arboretum! Study the different adaptations of animals, observe them in their natural habitat, and possibly track down a few on the grounds. Participants will walk away with indoor and outdoor activities related to local fauna. Although targeted to teachers of grades Pre-Kindergarten through fourth grade, all educators are welcome to register for the workshop, but the information may need to be adapted, as appropriate. You’ll take away several resources ready to plug into your classroom curriculum! Supplemental classroom resources will be provided. Professional Development Hours are available. Sponsored by the IDNR, this workshop is part of the ENTICE (Environment and Nature Training Institute for Conservation Education) program.
