VT: Riverside Nature Center 2nd Grade Field Days Assistance-Kerr County

If you like working with children and sharing your knowledge of the nature world, Riverside Nature Center has a volunteer opportunity tailor made for you.

On October 17, 18, 19 and 20, Riverside Nature Center will be conducting environmental field days for all the KISD 2nd graders from 8:30am – 11:45. The students will rotate through 4 learning stations: The River of Life (mainly aquatic life), Adaptations (feet and beaks), Decomposers (soil organisms & earth worms) and Life Cycles (focus on butterfly lifecycles). They will experience hands-on activities at each 40 minute station.

We have station leaders who have prepared the lesson plan and activities. What we need are willing and passionate assistants. You do not have to be an “expert” on any of the subjects but you must be willing to get engaged and have fun.

You may volunteer for one day or all four and of course you may report your hours by using the code: KR-02-A-PO.  Contact Becky Etzler for more information and to sign up: director@riversidenaturecenter.org or 257-4837.
