Specialized 2nd grade Insect Adventure and 5th grade Wild Florida Adventure curriculum programs were developed in coordination with Collier County teachers to include classroom lessons, field exploration, and Educator workshops. Both are aligned to the Florida Sunshine State Standards. Individuals, foundations and businesses support tuition costs through sponsorship.
Our innovative Partner Educator Program provides orientations, workshops and continued support to enable elementary teachers and university faculty and student naturalists to serve as field educators for visiting classes. Partner Educators receive membership benefits and recognition in our annual report.
Over 150 Partner Educators are currently trained and delivering programs in coordination with Corkscrew naturalists.

The Insect Adventure teaches about insects while enabling students to look at their environment with a holistic view.
The 5th Grade Wild Florida Adventure program provides students and teachers an opportunity to take advantage of that classroom and to use the environment as a platform for learning.
Program participants study and explore upland pine forests, open wet prairie and marsh wetlands and a stand of virgin of bald cypress.
Elementary Curriculum Programs were developed under the guidelines of Collier County's Teacher Specialist program.
The generosity of private individuals, foundations and businesses ensure financial support for Corkscrew's high-quality conservation education program.
