Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 30

Students were excited to see a live falcon and learn how important birds of prey are important to our ecosystem.

The conservancy also brought real fears,talons and eyeballs which the students were able to touch and feel.. This is such a worthwhile experience for my students in Immokalee who have never been to the conservancy.
