Description
Class Experience
When children have regular opportunities to experience nature they grow a better understanding and appreciation of how to healthily interact and live within the natural environment. Time spent outdoors allows them to develop their coordination, motor skills, and better assess their own abilities when taking risks - which leads to greater self confidence and self awareness.

This class is taught in English.
Students will learn to document their outdoor experiences creatively. Students will grow in their appreciation and connection to the natural world, learning to observe and respect the things around them.
I received my certification as a Master Forest Kindergarten Teacher from The Wauhatchie School/Forest School Teacher Institute, and have taught in the fields of Forest Kindergarten, nature schools, and outdoor education for over 20 years. As a teacher, I greatly value listening to children and giving them gentle guidance and a warm and encouraging space to follow their interests and try new things. I believe that every child can and should be able to experience the wholistic benefits of the Forest School philosophy, regardless of their access to a traditional program... and I hope this class will allow us to bring the wonder and joy of nature to your child, wherever you may be, and however you are able to bring them outdoors.
Students should come to class with an unlined notebook to use as their nature journal, and the drawing medium of their choice (colored pencils, markers, pencils, pen, etc.) Students should also bring one item collected from outdoors to share with the class (a rock, feather, flower, leaf, etc.)
50 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
