Game Commission Hosts PA Songbirds Workshop For Educators June 25
|
|
The Game Commission and its partners will host a Pennsylvania Songbirds Workshop for educators on June 25 at Black Rock Retreat in Quarryville, Pa. Pennsylvania Songbirds is a state-specific, hands-on bird education program about birds, people and the environment.
During this workshop, participants will explore bird biology and the natural history of specific songbirds; examine ecological concepts such as adaptation and migration; discover how songbirds sing; and do a field study to ID songbirds.
Participants will also be introduced to eBird, an online “citizen science” program that teachers can use with their students to report birds on school grounds and access graphs and real data from birders throughout the state.
PA Songbirds is a joint project of the Game Commission, DCNR's Bureau of State Parks and Audubon PA. Activities are designed to help educators address state Environment and Ecology Standards and Anchors. This workshop is approved for 5.5 ACT 48 hours.
