Classroom in the Woods 2013-2014 Mrs. Slimskey’s Kindergarten St. Peter’s Regional School Liberty, New York
Adventurous experiences out-of-doors kindle the enthusiasm of the young and develop their concern for others, for their community and for the environment. Such experiences provide the means of self-discovery, self-expression and enjoyment which are both stimulating and fulfilling. Lord Hunt of Llanfair Waterdine, KC, CBE, DSO
I tried using literature to inspire the beginning of our adventures in the woods! It worked!
September 13, 2013 First day in the woods!
September 20, 2013 Day 2 in the woods!
On our third day into the woods, the students started to get more sophisticated with their fairy house building, incorporating more treasures and working as teams.
The students also started using classroom tools to investigate what was in this new environment, and make connections with things learned in class! Centipedes and Pill bugs!
