Homeschool: Great Blue Herons

Great Blue Herons are careful observers, fast movers, and are vital to their habitat. This group is for our students ages 9 to 11 who will hike farther, learn more complex natural history concepts, and do more challenging projects.

In this Fall eight-week series, we will be learning about the wild superheroes all around us. Plants and animals have amazing abilities like flying through the air, breathing underwater, and defending themselves with their weird and wonderful adaptations. We'll search for these local legends and learn about their super skills through games, crafts, and hands-on exploration. All of our homeschool groups are learning about the same topics this fall, but with the content and activities tailored to the ages, interests, and needs of the group.
