Students (K-2nd Grade)

Thanks to a generous grant from Arizona Game and Fish Department’s Arizona Bird Conservation Initiative (ABCI), Audubon Arizona staff has been able to revamp the popular Science Takes Wing program. This program teaches common Arizona birds and is aligned to AZ state science standards for 6-8 grades. Two modules are currently available; the Central Arizona module focuses on common desert birds and the Northern Arizona module covers birds most likely to be seen in Arizona’s high country.

Hands on marine biology. $3 per student unless student does another program through them then its only $2 .

Questing is a natural history scavenger hunt designed to connect people with the history and culture of a particular area.
