Bring your class to a State Park and provide your students with an exceptional environment and opportunity for learning. California's North Coast is a land rich in natural and cultural history, biological diversity and distinctive geology. Teach your class about the Redwood Grove's complex web of life while seeing a wide variety of flora and fauna.
Redwood Ecology Program: Armstrong Redwoods offers students a chance to walk among the redwood giants and learn about the Grove's complex web of life while seeing a wide variety of flora and fauna. Spring and fall are very busy times, so reserve your space early. This program is suited for all grade levels. A teacher’s guide for Armstrong Redwoods is available online. In addition, Redwood Ed: A Guide to the Coast Redwoods for Teachers and Learners, a comprehensive guide for coast redwood educators, is also available online.
At each location we have a variety of educational aids available, including unique tours, teacher manuals, on site activities and follow-up lessons. Additionally, Stewards of the Coast and Redwoods isdeveloping a hands-on learning program that will enhance the environmental curriculum being taught in your classroom. This program will be tailored to specific subject areas and to the particular learning environment of each park unit. Pre-visit activities will provide a preparation for the field trip and post-visit activities will help to reinforce and apply the knowledge obtained in the on-site program. All activities will be outlined in a teacher's manual that you will receive in advance. The program costs will vary in relation to the program type and location. Take advantage of the natural wonders in your own "backyard" by planning an environmental field trip for your class.
