Build a project
Become a Fighting Extinction School by completing a curriculum-linked project with your students and sharing with Zoos Victoria online.
Whether you are looking for inspiration, or already have a project in mind, we are here to support you and your students to act for wildlife. You can build curriculum linked lessons with our easy to use project resources including;
- project ideas linked to school excursions
- teaching resources to support your understanding of animals
- teacher professional development to grow your knowledge, teaching skills and confidence
- real school teaching examples to get ideas for your project
- templates to start your project
If you are not sure where to start, or just want some extra assistance join us for a Build a Project teacher professional development day. We will help you connect all the dots and develop a project that will keep your students engaged and motivated to learn about the wildlife around them.
Once you complete your project, share your learning story with us online to become a Fighting Extinction School.
