The Boston Nature Center is made up of 3 separate ecosystems: forest, meadow, and wetland. During this trip, students will use scientific practices to discover the intricacies of each of these ecosystems and how they function. Through hands-on experimentation, data collection, and exploration, students investigate the biotic and abiotic factors that make these areas unique. This program is offered year-round!
Field trips are 2 hour guided programs led by Teacher Naturalists and are held outdoors. Schools are welcome to extend the field trip with an outdoor picnic lunch/snack and a visit to the nature play area. School groups are divided into groups of 15 students with 1 Teacher Naturalist.
