Bring a Ranger to YOUR Classroom!

A curriculum based ranger program can help you and your students meet grade level expectations. Ranger programs are an excellent tool to introduce or review a subject with your students.

Hands on activities, multimedia presentation keep students engaged in the program activities. Techniques such as cooperative learning, problem based learning, resource immersion challenge students to explore topics a little deeper.

Ranger programs also provide an opportunity to bring topical issues into the classroom learning environment, such as careers, subsistence, preserving student’s cultural heritage, shared heritage between northwest Alaska and the Russian far-east, and global climate change.

Ranger programs cover a broad range of topics; earth science biology, history and culture, writing, the visual arts and more.

If you would like to bring a ranger to your classroom or just discuss program options use the reservation form or contact Nichole Andler at 1-800-471-2352 or nichole_andler@nps.gov.

An inactive 2005 Bilge Creek Fire.  

Did You Know?
A lightning strike ignites a fire in the preserve. The fire burns for a week and then rain puts it out. In about 7 years, a visitor could walk on the burned site having no idea there once was a fire under his or her feet. This speedy site re-vegetation is typical of tundra fire adapted ecosystems.
