Fur, Feathers, and Fins

What is a mammal? Can all birds fly? How are fish able to breathe?

Designed specifically for younger students, this active, hands-on program is a unique introduction to mammals, birds, and fish for preschool, kindergarten, and first and second graders. Through costumes, activities, and hands-on demonstrations with museum specimens, students learn the distinguishing features of these special creatures. Students apply their new skills to determine the habitats and lifestyles of some familiar animals.

This program supports Colorado Model Content Standards for Science 3.1, 3.4.
