  Services to schools
 

Residential stays
The service is provided by all the agencies of the territorial Laboratory and is particularly addressed to students of compulsory schools and colleges. Residential stays, even if in different ways according to the structure's capacity and the specific approach of the single agency, are made of didactic laboratories in contact with environment, guided tours on the territory, integrations in order to support normal school lessions.
The ospitality service is varied and can be found along the Valle Camonica, in an atmosphere that ranges from the singular and wild dimension of Valpaghera of Ceto, to the complex twining with man-made contexts and landscapes of Vezza d'Oglio, Saviore dell'Adamello and Angolo Terme.

Laboratories in the classes
On demand from schools, several laboratory activities in the classes (particularly on scientific or animation arguments) can be made by the Environmental Education Center of Angolo Terme and the branch offices of the Parco Adamello. Until now, the offer regarded infant, primary and secondary schools.

Planning and making school spaces
The service is carried out by the Environmental Education Center of Angolo Terme, and consists of a series of intervention projects on the configuration of the logistic structures and learning spaces. Together with teachers and children, some interventions regarding didactic restructuring of school spaces are planned and carried out. Usually this is done by transforming courtyards in green classes and corridors in toy libraries.

Updating and training course for teachers
The service is offered by the Environmental Education Center of Angolo Terme and is based on two guidelines:
a) each year the center offers a package of laboratory-courses, stages, seminaries, etc. . Schools or single teachers can join;
b) some schools require specific courses on particular topics. In such case, activities are made directly at the schools.

Animation projects
Carried out by the Environmental Education Center of Angolo Terme, in collaboration with schools, "extraordinary" animation experiences are planned, coordinated and managed. During these, schools act in a "different" way: vertical groups and/or horizontal with the presence of teachers, parents, animators. The activity takes place inside and outside the school with changeable organization. Generally, the experience is centered on one topic (the game, the environment, the book, etc.) and ends with a moment of celebration.
