When:  Feb 21, 2023 from 07:00:00 PM to 08:00:00 PM (ET)

Webinar hosted by The Cornell Lab of Ornithology

School gardens and habitat improvement projects can provide the context for lessons across subjects and offer a wonderful opportunity to engage students in hands-on, project-based learning. Students who engage in school outdoor learning and school gardens are likely to experience academic, physical, emotional, social, and even behavioral benefits. Green schoolyards not only benefit students, but they can also benefit birds!

In this webinar, educators will:

  • Learn key steps to setting up and maintaining your school gardens or schoolyard improvement project.

  • Discover how simple changes and additions can make your schoolyard more bird friendly.

  • Address several challenges school gardeners and habitat improvement projects may face.

This webinar is free and open to all educators
