NEW courses with Naturalist Rudy Mancke
- History in North America & Beyond, Series I and Series II
Both courses highlight the four regions of the United States as we learn about the biodiversity of each area, looking at the distinctive geography and the great variety of plant and animal life forms along with their remarkable habitats to understand how they are connected. This study allows K-12 educators to integrate Natural History into their teaching, making connections that students can relate to anywhere in the world. Award-winning “NatureScene” programs produced on location provide a rich, up-close experience with unprecedented access and exceptional photography. Naturalist Mancke conveys additional information in separate segments to extend, reinforce and connect. (Two other courses will be added later 2020. Series III focuses on South Carolina and Series IV on other highlights across our country, plus a variety of areas beyond our borders.)(NOTE: Offered for first time Winter 2020. Available in all subsequent sessions.)
