Pennsylvania Songbirds is a hands-on, interdisciplinary K-8 teachers' resource and activity guide developed by DCNR's Bureau of State Parks and Audubon Mid-Atlantic. Lessons are developed to enhance students' knowledge of observation and identification of songbirds, bird biology, habitat, migration, and more, while helping teachers meet PA STEELS standards.

This Professional Development Workshop will include first-hand experiences with a variety of lessons included in the guide, as well as a visit to the Bird Banding Station located at Lackawanna State Park (weather permitting).

Open to classroom teachers and non-formal educators (including, but not limited to, pre-service teachers, homeschool parents, naturalists, and scout leaders), all participants will receive the newly updated PA Songbirds Activity Guide. Five (5) Act 48 hours are available to educators holding Pennsylvania public school certifications.

Registration is required, as space is limited. To register, click on the Buy Tickets icon.

This workshop does have a $15.00 fee to attend. Payment details will be included in your registration confirmation email.
