About This Program
The beauty of the Arctic and the fascinating lives of the Inuit come alive in Arctic Adventure. Through discussion, activities and artifact examination, students will learn how the Inuit survived and thrived in this harsh climate. Students will depart with an understanding and appreciation how geography and resources can shape a community. Some activities take place outside including trying out the snow goggles they made and trying their hand at Inuit games.
