Ogden Nature Center

The 152-acre preserve is our foundation, but education is our focus. Each year the Ogden Nature Center brings more than 50,000 children, teachers, and adults together with nature through hands-on field classes. Participants in our education programs, both for school groups and for the community, observe and learn about plants and animals up-close, discovering the pleasure of being in nature and realizing their own connection to the environment.

Ogden Nature Center: Adaptation Stations
Rating
0.0 stars

Adaptations are important for survival for all living things, even for humans. Living things (plants and animals, including humans) have external features that allow them to survive in a variety of environments. Through experimentation, students will discover how difficult it is to manage simple tasks without the use of their thumbs. They will also learn about some adaptations other animals have that help them survive without thumbs.
