Our Teaching Method Now Stands On Three Pillars
Nature Observation
Seasonal Bird & Nature walks with a focus on nature stories unfolding around us through the life and interactions of species all along the branches of the tree of life. We use intuitive and creative activities to serve our purpose.
Creative Expression
The creative process involves an immersive understanding of the subject. By engaging the children in a journey of illustrations, storytelling using DIY puppets, song writing, exhibitions etc. we inculcate empathy towards Birds and Nature.
Scientific Approach
Our curriculum encourages critically engaging with problems and finding rational solutions to foster the development of environmental stewards in the future.
Children-contact hours is our preferred metric to gauge the amount of engagement. We calculate this by multiplying the total number of children present in a session with the duration of the session.
Programs
We have executed 3 different types of programs across various districts of West Bengal with the support of various partner organizations and Institutions.
