Ranger leading students through Habitat Dance moves

NPS

Invite a ranger to your school! We offer a variety of 45-60 minute presentations for your class. We can bring our microscopes to do a mobile Plankton Lab, lead games to improve understanding of sea turtle life cycles, and explore Floridas Coral Reef by making yummy coral polyps.

We also offer Lionfish Disection Labs for middle and high school level grades. These 90 minute labs include an overview of the issues related to invasive species, lionfish biology and physiology, and hands-on disection while recording measurments such as weight and length, stomach contents, and percentage of adipose fat. We have a limited number of lionfish in our freezer and book lab reservations dependent upon our supply.

In order to minimize fuel costs and time on the road, we limit our off-site visits to schools south of 8th Street. We also prefer to visit multiple classrooms while at your school and appreciate your help in setting up a full day of class time.

If you're interested in hosting a ranger, please contact the Education Coordinator at 786-335-3690 or e-mail us to schedule a presentation.
