| Details | Join Kyle Miller from the Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute on a virtual field trip to meet lizards at the Zoo’s Reptile Discovery Center! Kyle will teach your students about lizards' special adaptations for survival and then you’ll have the chance to virtually meet a skink, gecko, and a baby Komodo dragon! Kyle will share with students how he got interested in science, how science is important in caring for the lizards and reptiles at the Zoo, and what students can do if they also want to work with animals one day. - This webinar is designed for students in grades 3-5. It will be approximately 45 minutes with interactive polls and Q&A, followed by an optional, extended 15-minute Q&A.
- This webinar complements the Animal Adaptations school program and can be used as a resource before or after that program to extend learning.
- The primary goals of this webinar are to explore science careers, help students find value in studying the natural world, and build their interest and personal connections to science.
