Wetland Wildlife Grade 8-12
Beaver Lake is one of Vancouver’s last natural wetlands, and it is home to incredible plants and animals in a changing urban landscape.
What impacts the health and water quality of freshwater ecosystems? How can humans protect wetlands, and what does it look like to incorporate Indigenous and Western worldviews into our understanding of environmental stewardship? Through learning about species relationships, data collection, and the use of scientific tools and bioindicators, students will assess the water quality of Beaver Lake and learn about the essential ecosystem services wetlands provide. Roll up your sleeves and get ready to explore Beaver Lake up close in this hands-on, curriculum aligned program for Grades 8-12!
This program is available in spring between April and June.
