Schedule a Fall Classroom Wildlife Program. Educators who want to introduce their students in grades 3-6 to New Hampshire’s wildlife and aquatic resources – or to reinforce related lessons – have until September 28 to request fall 2018 Wonders of Wildlife (WOW) presentations by New Hampshire Fish and Game Department volunteer docents.

Wonders of Wildlife is a series of active educational programs presented in the classroom.  Fish and Game WOW docents travel to elementary schools statewide to present one of four interactive programs:  Habits and Habitats, Endangered Species, Pond Ecology, and Wetlands.  There is no charge for the programs.

Teachers may download a print-and-mail program request form found on the Fish and Game website at www.wildnh.com/education/wonders-of-wildlife.html.

Wild Times for Kids presents terminology that can be defined by reading the text of the issue, and presents key words used in many science textbooks.
