Nature Net's Guides to Wisconsin State Academic Standards
How to Use Nature Net's Guides
to State Academic Standards
These
Guides
list all Wisconsin Model Academic Standards, and the Nature Net sites
that fulfill them. The format matches that of the Wisconsin Model
Academic Standards for clear and easy comparison. You can find all
general "content themes", along with specific standards under each
theme. Associated with each standard are all Nature Net sites that can
fulfill the standard. A key to names of the outdoor education centers

Abbreviations and Symbols
-
A
plus sign (+)
next to a Nature Centers name indicates a visit to the Center,
in conjunction with pre-visit and/or post-visit classroom
activities conducted by the teacher, would fulfill the standard.
-
An
asterisk (*) next to a Nature Centers name indicates
that the Center can offer a special program to fulfill the
standard.
Please keep in mind that many of the centers are highly flexible
in their offerings and can modify or develop programs to fit the needs
of your
class. In fact, certain centers do not have set programs but prefer
to do special programs that are specifically adapted to fit each
class. Nature Net educators talk with each teacher to determine the
content of a program, then develop an educational experience that
reflects the learning needs of the class. If you wish to learn more
about specific programs at any site, contact
the site directly.
