Program Highlights

MUNCHLINE MONITORS & EARTH WALK

If there are two classes they will be split up and going on two separate walks. The activity will take about 75 mins. One group will do Munchline Monitors while the other will do the discovery hike. It is important that the teachers are there for the walk to help with any behavioral issues and to participate in the learning experience so that any lesson extensions can be applied once back at school

ACTIVITY CENTERS

Activity centers are led by the adult volunteers (parents, grandparents, school staff, etc.) who come on the field trip, not Cooper staff. Activity Centers need to be selected prior to your visit and communicated to the Cooper Center’s Staff so we can prepare your supplies. This will also give the adult volunteer teaching the Centers the time to prepare with a lesson plan.
