Inside and want to have your students explore nature? There’s lots of ways to bring nature indoors in meaningful exploration of conservation and the wonders of the natural world. Some of our Nature Net members have created great opportunities for older students to connect with nature even from inside!

Nature Net has gathered these opportunities here:

Create your own crystals and geodes with the Cave’s science experiments!

On Thursdays they have their online From the Field Series of webinars, free to the public.
