| Welcome,
Fifth Grade Teachers and Students!
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has joined the Walt Disney Company and the California Environmental Education Interagency Network in support of Jiminy Cricket's Environmentality Challenge. Our Field Offices, Wildlife Refuges, and Fish Hatcheries can offer you various resources and field opportunities to assist you in the Environmentality Challenge or with other environmental education activities. The Environmentality Challenge is a two-part program consisting of a Pledge and Class Project Competition. You can incorporate this program into your existing curriculum while meeting California State Content Standards. Use the environment as a context to strengthen your student's skills and knowledge in language arts, science, and mathematics. When students succeed in conservation activities, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service succeeds too! Did you know that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is the only agency of the U.S. Government whose primary responsibility is fish, wildlife and plant conservation? We have programs like migratory bird and fish conservation, habitat conservation, and endangered species recovery. Most of our conservation activities require partnerships and education to be fully successful and that's why we invite you to join us in implementing conservation activities in your area. Please explore our websites and contact one of our Field Offices, Wildlife Refuges or Fish Hatcheries for more information about species and conservation efforts in your area and how you can partner with us in the Environmentality Challenge. How can you make contact with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? Link to the websites listed below and you'll be able to find maps with the locations of offices, refuges, and hatcheries across California as well as the contact and program information for that site. You can also contact the Sacramento Fish and Wildlife Office External Affairs Program at (916) 414-6600 for information about the Environmentality Challenge and how to partner with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
