Metroparks Homeschool Series - 104402651

Calling all homeschoolers- Discover the Forces of Nature through a program series just for you! Students are grouped into classes by age and ability level (5-6, 7-8, 9-10, and 11-12 year olds) and meet once a month for the school year. Each month focuses on a different topic and culminates with an optional project fair. All classes include group activities, nature exploration, and inquiry-based learning all while having fun and covering science concepts.
Choose from the Friday morning session (10:45 am-12:00 pm) or Friday afternoon session (1:45 pm-3:00 pm). This program series meets at Wildwood Preserve Metropark. Students should dress for the weather, as the majority of the program is held outside.
