The heart of our business is education. We take great pride in our school enrichment programs. Our goal is to strengthen each student’s knowledge of the grade level TEKS and structure our programs to enhance those skills needed to improve STAAR test scores. Our programs are entertaining and educational. We truly believe that our animals will leave an impression on students that will last a lifetime.
We would love to bring our “Wildly Educational” programs to your school. Our programs are entertaining, but our goal is also to work in grade level TEKS. Students are more likely to remember adaptations, food chain, and structure function relationships (for example) when it comes alive in the classroom. Our programs help to reinforce the learning experience.
We do have many options. I’m confident we can structure a program to fit your budget and educational goals. The Creature Teacher programs are listed below:
New! Drones
At The Creature Teacher, we focus on making the learning experience engaging and accessible by integrating hands-on activities and interactive lessons. We introduce students to the basic principles of flight, including concepts such as lift, thrust, and aerodynamics, through simple experiments and demonstrations. We explore how drones work, the different types of drones, and their real-world applications, such as in agriculture, photography, and delivery services. To foster practical skills, we guide students in safely operating mini drones, teaching them to navigate obstacles and perform basic maneuvers. Through these activities, we aim to inspire curiosity, critical thinking, and a love for technology, while emphasizing the importance of safety and responsible use.
Live Animal – Biomes
Choose from rainforest, desert, grasslands, or savannah animals.
Live Animal – Continents
Choose from North or South America, Asia, Africa, or Australian animal.
New! Skulls
With this program, students will be asked to find clues from each skull or fossil to learn facts about survival traits, diet, and its behaviors
New! Conservation Presentation
Dezzi the sloth will help students to understand the importance of conservation of the rainforest and the other habitats around the world. Other South American animals will accompany her as she and our instructor give this information filled presentation
New! Water Testing Environmental Impact Class (experiment)
This class is for groups of 25 or less (great for the STEM Camp). Students will be given a hypothetical situation where fish are dying in a lake that has been polluted. They are asked to analyze the situation, form a hypothesis as to the cause, test their hypothesis, and form a conclusion as to the cause and solution.
New! Team Building
Students get to learn teamwork, and problem solving skills, while getting some good old fashion fresh air and exercise. This class is the perfect addition to your next STEM Camp.
At The Creature Teacher, we pride ourselves on our experienced staff, legal compliance, and our commitment to animal welfare. Our possession of a Class C Exhibitor’s license from the USDA demonstrates our unwavering commitment to upholding the highest standards in both animal care and educational excellence.
Choosing our wildlife education programs means choosing a path to enrich students’ understanding of the world around them. We offer more than just classes; we provide experiences that ignite curiosity, foster empathy, and build a foundation for lifelong learning. Join us in this exciting educational journey.
