Program Details & Accessibility:
Conservation Classroom is a collection of programs that include live virtual programs each month from September through May. These programs are designed for multiple groups of students to join and learn together. We welcome all audiences from individuals and home-schooling families to large groups and schools. Programs are hosted via Zoom in the webinar format. Individual participants’ audio and video will be disabled, but students can actively participate using polls, emoji reactions, Q&A, and chat to hosts. Program includes live captioning, American sign language (ASL) interpretation, and simulcast Spanish translation. The program will be recorded and posted on our website and emailed out to those who have registered approximately 48 hours after the program. ASL TIP: If you would like to see the ASL interpreter, we recommend joining on a computer instead of a phone or tablet so the interpreter will be visible the entire time. Program Resources: Take your student’s learning further! All programs come with a collection of resources released at the beginning of the month, which can be found on the Zoo’s school programs page at https://nationalzoo.si.edu/education/school-programs The collection includes an “I Wonder…” video which is a great introduction to the monthly program topic, an activity that can be used during the program, an activity to use after the program, and a “Career Connections” video that connects students to a related STEAM career. Note: the program can be enjoyed without accessing the additional resources alone as well. |
