Curriculum Materials

An active marble cave and underground stream reveal the inside of one of the world's most diverse geological realms. This richness provides educational opportunities which can be found in the following curriculum-based education programs:

Geology: Our Changing Earth, 3rd-5th grades

Watersheds: Through the Mountain and to the Valley, 6th-8th grades

If you have a class grade outside of the curriculum based programs offered at Oregon Caves, our partner, Siskiyou Field Institute in Selma Oregon, may be able to serve your class.
