FIELD TRIPS
Research has shown that multiple forays into nature with a consistent leader is the most effective means of environmental education. Therefore, NSNP’s featured program is the Naturalist-in-Residence. These unique, innovative programs provide your classroom with a trained naturalist who will make a minimum of five visits to your classroom. During these visits, we will seamlessly integrate place-based ecology lessons into your current curriculum through scientific inquiry, games, activities, and guided exploration.
We also offer traditional Enrichment Programs. These hour-long programs provide hands-on activities and lessons on specific topics or concepts.

The goal of our homeschool programs is to instill a love of nature in our students while also facilitating positive social interactions within the group. Our homeschool class routine is as follows: warm up with a group game, eat a quick snack, spend about an hour on focused exploration connected to the day’s theme followed by 30 minutes of free play/exploration. During this final half hour, students can practice specific wilderness skills, participate in group activities and games, or engage in individual exploration.
