Virtual PORTS Programs
Bring the Parks to your classroom! These interactive virtual programs allow students to learn about California's cultural and natural resources from the comfort of their classroom. Programs are usually 45 minutes long with some time at the end for questions.
Sign up for Why Watersheds Matter and learn about the third largest watershed in California – the Eel River watershed in Humboldt Redwoods State Park! By exploring signs of healthy versus unhealthy watersheds and the relationship between redwoods and the river, students will learn about the interconnectedness of nature and the importance of clean watersheds. This interactive program is designed for grades 3rd-8th.
In-Person Guided Tours
Take your class on a field trip to the park! State Park Interpreters will be present to welcome and help students learn about Parks. Field trip activities can vary depending on the needs of your class. Guided field trips are 2-3 hours long with breaks in between activities.
Interpreters can lead activities such as:
- Educational walks
- Nature crafts
- Engaging games
... And other activities that will connect them to the park!
