Resources for educators
DUC also offers fun activities for wetland educators and pupils. Which one are you?
Wetland educators come in all forms, from teachers developing lesson plans, to nature interpreters and camp staff, to parents introducing their kids to the wild side of life.
Wetland pupils are young people with a thirst for knowledge and conservation action. What better way to quench that thirst than with wetlands?
Whatever type of educator or pupil you are, our Wetland Activities will help you learn from wetlands, and to return the favour by taking action on their behalf.
