Have you ever taken a nature walk? It’s a great way to discover new and interesting things. In this lesson, you’ll go on a nature walk in New York City. You’ll see animals that have very different characteristics, but you’ll also see that they share a few common traits.

Before you go on the nature walk, you’ll take a look at some of those common traits. Then, you’ll head out virtually through New York with a list of animal-related things to look for. After your virtual nature walk, you can go outside to see if you find the same things from your list! You can also choose an animal you observed, and do some further research on it.

What you’ll learn:

  • Animal characteristics on an introductory level.
