The Great Nature Project
I just discovered this wonderful opportunity to get your students involved in a world wide celebration of life on the planet sponsored by National Geographic.
It’s called the Great Nature Project!
It’s simple to participate:
- Go outside.
- Snap a photo of a plant or animal.
- Upload it to a photo sharing website.
Go to The Great Nature Project’s educator page for both Inside and Outside ideas you can do with your students this week!
Use this collection of resources to dig deeper into biodiversity, explore citizen science, and develop photography skills. Plan your own species inventory during a bioblitz or learn about conservation of weird and wild flora, fauna, and everything in between. We encourage you to make the Great Nature Project your own—after all, we are all explorers.
And don’t forget to read my other new blog this week, Leaf It to Me!
