Project OspreyTrack: Osprey Curriculum

Thanks to funding from 3M Eco Grant, Eversource Energy and the Jane B. Cook 1983 Charitable Trust, we have created a series of Project OspreyTrack cross-curricular teaching resources. Many of these lesson plans have been adapted from materials created in the UK by ©J&P Murray, 2014 and World Osprey Week. These materials are free for you to download and use, BUT we ask that you register your school (or eco club or homeschool group) on the World Osprey Week website and become part of this international project. Your school will be featured on an interactive map that also plots the migrations of several featured Ospreys in the Americas and Europe.

The resources are designed so that schools and teachers can dip into the materials, ideas and lesson plans as much as they wish to. We encourage schools to communicate with each other and share experiences with students across the globe.

My Husband and I stopped here on the way home from visiting Mt. Washington, and we were pleasantly surprised! It was very clean and well maintained, and there were a lot of healthy active animals. We did the live animal exhibit trail...I’m pregnant and wanted something nice and easy. We took our time and it took about 2 hours (if you have kids, there’s so much to do with them, like a playground and picnic area). There were many benches, most of it was in the shade, no big hills, and it was very stroller friendly and handicap accessible. It was so educational, and lots of care and thought went into all of the exhibits, great for kids and adults! Can’t wait to take the baby back here in a few years!

Very nice place, clean and informative. Different from other places - lots for kids to learn hands on. I was a little apprehensive due to the cost and not many animals but felt like it was worth every penny. I would recommend packing a lunch and taking advantage of the trails - make a full day out of it.

Had a wonderful time, self guided with interactive educational displays. Lots to do and all really neat exhibits, they really have utilized simple technology throughout the entire park to really make it interactive without being overly complicated or heavily dependent upon software. Loved it highly recommended for children.
