Self-Guided Activities for Zoo Field Trips

These activities are designed to allow students to explore science concepts on their Zoo field trip. The packets include pre- and post-field trip activities that can take place in the classroom or at home, as well as those that can be completed during the field trip. All resources are aligned to Ohio’s Learning Standards.

We are grateful to Battelle for the funding to make these materials possible.
