Education Resources for You

The Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel (SPNI) plays an integral role in providing environmental education to all schools in Israel, running a variety of classroom and hands-on educational programs. All schools in Israel, public and private, religious and secular, Jewish and Arab, use SPNI’s environmental educational materials across the state. SPNI’s Field Schools provide a variety of educational, camping, and recreational programs for families, individuals, and organized school groups for hands on learning about nature as well.

 

Nature Israel is building a program to provide English speakers with SPNI’s educational content to share with learning communities outside of Israel.

Endangered Species Program

Discover Israel’s unique wildlife and learn how to protect it. Our Endangered Species Program introduces students to animals at risk—like gazelles, otters, sea turtles, coral reefs, and griffon vultures—through stories, activities, and real conservation projects.

 

While it was designed with Bar and Bat Mitzvah students in mind, this program can easily be adapted for different ages, classrooms, or community groups. The page also includes a beautifully illustrated endangered species poster you can download and share.

Gazelle Valley Coloring Pages

Enjoy coloring pages and special activities we have prepared for you, through which you can learn about the different animals that live in Gazelle Valley Park. The pages can be printed or used digitally.
