Down to Earth Conservation Education offers fun-filled learning experiences for students of all ages. Established in 1984, we are committed to teaching respect for, and understanding of all living things, the environment and vanishing indigenous cultures worldwide. Through our innovative educational programs, students are treated to curriculum-based presentations of our personal research journeys around the world and amazing "hands-on" learning displays.
Extensive "hands-on" learning displays will be provided for all Social Studies, Geography and Science presentations. Wildlife displays are courtesy of Environment Canada (Canadian Wildlife Service), Ministry of Natural Resources and public donations. Cultural displays are courtesy of Loretta Penny. 
Michael McLean is an avid political history buff with a strong interest toward human rights and the preservation of indigenous peoples around the world. From his humble upbringing in the Caribbean to a world traveller, Michael pulls from his roots and experiences, in adding an element of "adventure" to all performances.
Adventures in Education!Snorkel through a coral reef. Peer into a volcano. Hike through a tropical rainforest... WITHOUT leaving your school!
Curiosity will rise and hearts will beat faster as students vicariously hike through the Amazon rainforest, dive into the Caribbean Sea and climb ancient Mayan temples of Central America. All ten presentations are based on personal adventure research expeditions around the world. Launch into units of study in intimate classroom surroundings or combine all grades for a feature slide presentation in the gym. Presentations include extensive MUSEUM QUALITY hands-on displays!! |
