Homeschool Programs

The LRAS is currently offering programs to homeschooled children. These are specialized programs that cover different science topics that are adjusted to participants' learning level. Most homeschooled groups usually visit our center where they receive a presentation on the subject to be covered followed by a worksheet or a field outing in which the kids have the opportunity to learn firsthand what was covered in the presentation.

When studying plants, birds and insects kids have the opportunity to explore our 44 acres preserve accompanied by one of our naturalist who will help them identify what they find. Older kids are taught basic sampling methods and how to preserve biological samples for later study.  The Street Audubon Center maintains a collection of preserved specimens, mounted birds, a shell collection and many more items for close observation.

When scheduling a session at the Street Audubon Nature Center please let us know what your kids are currently working on, and we’ll prepare accordingly to meet their learning needs. Either call us or email us a general outline of what they have covered so far and what needs to be covered by us.  We’ll provide you with audio-visual materials and activities to go along with the session.
