Educational outdoor learning station signs identify the purpose of the learning stations, explain the scientific concepts related to the learning stations, and describe the types of wildlife habitats and/or ecological benefits the stations provide.
The example learning station signs below could be printed on 18″ x 24″ outdoor signs such as .08 aluminum for approximately $60-80 each. Don’t forget to have holes drilled into the top and bottom of your sign so that you can attach it to a 4″ x 4″ lumber post or a u-post (similar to this one)!
Each of these signs include a QR code that links to a relevant Student Investigation webpage full of educational content about the sign’s topic.
