Environmental Learning Programs
Environmental Living Programs (ELP)
These school group programs are "living" overnight experiences for students. Students are immersed in the past for a brief time and learn from their own experience about earlier cultures and lifestyles. ELPs are coordinated with concepts taught in the classroom. Good pre-trip preparations are essential for the success of the student experience during the program. Students relate the past to the present by participating in activities, food, and chores appropriate to the park's period.
