Join us in Tulsa for WILD About Earth Month, a hands-on professional learning experience centered on phenology—the study of seasonal changes—and how to engage students in active, outdoor learning.In this workshop, educators will use the award-winning Project WILD and/or Growing Up WILD curriculum to investigate real-time spring phenomena through observation, movement, and inquiry. Participants will explore how to guide students in tracking patterns such as budding plants, animal behavior, and changing weather while building skills in data collection and scientific thinking. Activities are designed to get students outside, interacting directly with their environment, and making sense of what they observe.During the morning, we will focus our time on Growing Up WILD and supporting preK-2nd grade learners. In the afternoon, we will explore Project WILD's "Terrestrial" Guide and lessons for grades 3rd through 8th. Each session will feature different activities and phenomena; educators are welcome to attend either or both sessions.Special Field ExperienceA highlight of the workshop will be guided, hands-on field investigations focused on observing and documenting spring phenology. Educators will rotate through active learning stations where they will practice data collection, journaling, and simple observation techniques that can be easily replicated with students. These experiences will model how to turn everyday seasonal changes into meaningful, student-driven investigations. Perfect for schoolyard science as the academic year draws to a close!What to ExpectPhenology in Practice: Engage in hands-on Project WILD activities that track and interpret seasonal changeActive Outdoor Learning: Participate in movement-based and inquiry-driven lessons designed to get students learning by doingStudent Data Collection: Practice simple, repeatable strategies for observation, journaling, and tracking environmental patternsCurriculum Guide: Receive your own Project WILD or Growing Up WILD activity guide to support continued classroom and outdoor instructionReady-to-Use Strategies: Leave with practical ways to incorporate phenology into daily instruction across subjectsWorkshop DetailsDate: Saturday, April 25thTime: 9 AM to Noon (Grades PreK-2: Growing Up WILD), 1 to 4 PM (Grades 3-8: Project WILD 'Terrestrial')Location: Tulsa, to be announced!Cost: $10 (includes curriculum guide to take home and workshop supplies)Scholarships: Available if cost is a barrier to participationWhy Attend?
