Creatures & Curriculum

Calling all students who are missing the classroom this spring & fall!

We are excited to bring back the Lehigh Valley Zoo’s Creatures and Curriculum program, where students and parents/guardians/teachers will be joined by our Education Specialists for a one-of-a-kind, hands-on learning experience.

During this roughly two-hour program, students will get up close with some of the Lehigh Valley Zoo’s most popular ambassador animals and will dive into learning about subjects like animal habitats and animal adaptations.

This program not only includes classroom time, but students will also have the opportunity to spend time exploring the Lehigh Valley Zoo and learning about its incredible animal residents!

 

Scheduled Sessions

Habitat Discovery and LV Zoo Tour

For this course, students will dive into the subject of habitats around the world and will get to meet several of the Lehigh Valley Zoo’s ambassador animals that are native to the habitats discussed. Later, students will be led on an exclusive Zoo Tour where they’ll meet and learn about the many animals that call the Lehigh Valley Zoo home

 October 2nd | 10:30am – 12:30pm
