The Leopold Education Project (LEP) is an innovative, interdisciplinary conservation education curriculum based on the classic writings of Aldo Leopold, a renowned conservationist. The LEP program helps students recognize their ties to the natural world - and their role in the conservation and protection of natural resources. Activities emphasize careful observation, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. Both classroom lessons and outdoor activities are included. The ultimate goal of the LEP is to instill a love, respect, and admiration for the land, leading to environmentally responsible citizenship. Curriculum can easily be adjusted to all grade levels.
