What is Exploring Nature Educational Resource? Exploring Nature Educational Resource is an organization that provides educational resources, programs and activities about natural science and nature studies for students, teachers and librarians/media specialists.

What age is the target audience of the website? The website provides an extensive animal database and Young Explorers’ Activity section for grades K-6. The rest of the site, including the teaching resources (lectures, activities and hand outs), natural science newsletter, natural science BLOG, science store and nature trail information sections are for educators of all ages and levels.

How often does new information get added to the website? The Exploring Nature Educational Resource naturalist adds new information weekly, including teacher requests for new activities, regularly added new animals to the database, monthly science newsletters, BLOG postings, new science store products, and new monthly Young Explorer activities.

Who can join the site? Site membership is open to anyone, but is targeted for K-6 media specialists that can offer the resources to students and teachers. It is also ideal for home schoolers and science educators in general.

How can you get more information about products in the science store? You can ask for it by emailing: sheri@exploringnature.org

How can educators ask for specific topics, animal info or activities that they would like to see offered on the site? They can ask for it by emailing: sheri@exploringnature.org

How long does it take to have requests fulfilled? Exploring Nature Educational Resource will try to post requested items on the site within ten days, but sometimes they can come up the next day!

Can I look at the site before I commit to sign up? The sample section shows a sampling of everything available on the site. It is just a small glimpse, of course, but will give you an idea of what the site is like.
