Project WILD is an interdisciplinary conservation and environmental education program emphasizing wildlife.
The program is designed for educators of kindergarten through twelfth grade. Project WILD capitalizes on the natural interest that children and adults have in wildlife by providing hands-on activities that enhance all subject and skill areas. Project WILD addresses the need for human beings to develop as responsible citizens of our planet. Project WILD provides effective methods to teach problem solving and decision making. It teaches students how to think, not what to think. Materials include two activity guides for K-12 grade educators: the Project WILD K-12 Activity Guide focuses on wildlife and habitat, and the Project Wild Aquatic Guide emphasizes aquatic wildlife and aquatic ecosystems. Project WILD educational materials are provided to educators through practical, interactive 6-hour workshops. For more information call 601-354-7303. |
