Class Experience
US Grade 1 - 3
One of my favorite authors to introduce children to the wonders of nature study is Thornton W. Burgess. In this ongoing Charlotte Mason inspired class, we will use "The Burgess Animal Book for Children" by Thornton W. Burgess to explore the world of animals. While some animals appear in multiple chapters, the chapters mostly stand alone. Learners are welcome to join the class at any time. Each class will follow a similar schedule: 1. I will welcome students and introduce the day's topic. 2....
- Learners will practice observation and narration skills while drawing an animal and listening to a chapter of "The Burgess Animal Book for Children."
I have taught science and agriculture for many years as a high school teacher and now as a homeschool parent. I have always loved nature, but I became more passionate about nature study when I became a certified naturalist.
REQUIRED: Please bring the following materials to class: Nature journal (or plain paper for drawing animals) Pencil Colored pencils, markers, crayons, or other art supplies to draw animals
The primary source for this class is "The Burgess Animal Book for Children." Learners are not required to have a copy of this book; however you may read it for free on Project Gutenberg at https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/2441. I will also show pictures of animals and sometimes show short videos of animals.
