Education

Audubon's award-winning environmental education program about the natural world and how to protect it can be implemented in any classroom or after-school program. All it takes is an interest in exploring, learning about, and enjoying the natural world around you.

At Audubon, we believe that simple enjoyment of the natural world is a wonderful way to bring families closer together.

Each year more than 1 million people of all ages visit Audubon Centers and Sanctuaries.

Even when you can’t manage to get outdoors with your students, you can do a lot to bring nature inside. Try some of the following ideas to make classroom time more wild and green.

One of the most exciting ways to teach your students about the natural world is to take them outdoors.

Every February, bird lovers of all ages join forces in Audubon and Cornell Lab’s Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC). Meet Zach Slavin, education program assistant for Great Backyard Bird Count, and learn just how easy it is to participate in five easy steps. Hint: you can even participate in your pajamas.
