NPS Photo There are three separate programs available: comparing cave swallows and bats, bat counting, and bat measurement. Students will engage in hands-on learning activities and exercises that will be challenging, yet fun and rewarding. These programs have been developed to meet New Mexico Academic Standards and the CORE Standards. Kindergarten teachers interested in hosting a ranger program for their class should contact the Carlsbad Caverns National Park Education office at (575) 785-3127 between 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. These programs are offered throughout the school year, but they must be scheduled at least three weeks in advance. |
