Tuesday Among the Trees, September 27th

It was our first time in the forest!



We began our day with some exploration and creativity.  Students could choose whether they wanted to look at pictures and read about what they might see in the forest or draw what they imagined they might see.  Then it was time to head outside!

  

The walk up the steep hill to our home base was chilly but fun as we pointed out different interesting parts of the forest to each other.  When we reached the top we gathered for snack as we took in our new surroundings.



Our next task included a color scavenger hunt.  We were looking for natural items that were various colors.  We found orange mushrooms, red leaves, and black pieces of wet wood.  We're hoping to make collections next week!

After our work time we explored our new forest classroom.  Lots of us were climbing up rocks, collecting big pieces of wood, and playing in stick forts.

It was 58 degrees out.  We're looking forward to being outside next week too!
