Bring a Ranger to YOUR Classroom!
A curriculum based ranger program can help you and your students meet grade level expectations. Ranger programs are an excellent tool to introduce or review a subject with your students.
Hands on activities and multimedia presentation keep students engaged in the program activities. Techniques such as cooperative learning, problem based learning, and resource immersion challenge students to explore topics more deeply.
Ranger programs also provide an opportunity to bring topical issues into the classroom learning environment. Topics such as careers, subsistence, preserving students' cultural heritage, shared heritage between northwest Alaska and the Russian far-east, and global climate change can be addressed.
Ranger programs cover a broad range of topics including earth science, biology, history and culture, writing, the visual arts and more.
