limited offering to grade 4 classes, subject to availability of funding
Project Webfoot is a regional Ducks Unlimited Canada program that links specifically to the Grade 4 curriculum in PEI. It creates the opportunity for students to apply their learning and connect with nature through safe, interactive and inspiring educational content both inside and outside the classroom.
Island Nature Trust has been a partner on this project since 2004 and we deliver 15-25 field trips a year to wetland ecosystems across the Island. Students spend a morning or afternoon immersed in learning about a local wetland habitat, practicing their critter dipping, identification of aquatic invertebrates, listening and using binoculars to look for wetland birds, and watching for signs of beaver, muskrat, frogs and other wildlife.
