Wildlife Workshop for Youth Educators Planned

Teachers, don't let your summer pass you by, get WILD. The Idaho Department of Fish and Game will host a WILD about Early Learners Workshop in Lewiston designed for teachers of pre-Kindergarten to second-grade to help them learn fun and exciting ways to teach wildlife conservation in the classroom. The workshop will be from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. August 16 and 17 at Fish and Game's Lewiston office, 3316 16th Street. Teachers will receive an Idaho WILD about Early Learners Guide, which is full of fun, educational activities for younger students. In the specialized guide, teachers will find hands-on learning activities, resource lists, home connections and more. Workshop participants will also receive the activity-filled Project WILD and WILD Aquatic guides. Cost is $30, which includes all guides, supplemental materials and a potato bar lunch. College credit is available for an additional $50. To register, contact Lori Adams, Project WILD Coordinator, at (208) 287-2889 or by e-mail at ladams@idfg.idaho.gov.
