PA Biodiversity
Pennsylvania Biodiversity Guide for Grades 6-10 contains 12 Pennsylvania-specific, biodiversity-focused activities and an extensive, well-researched background section. The guide was developed by the Pennsylvania Game Commission and the Pennsylvania Biological Survey, and is based on the World Wildlife Fund’s “Windows on the WILD: Biodiversity Basics” Curriculum.
Project Learning Tree
