My Project

I chose nature books and hands-on activities for my students to explore with one another. By providing these tools, they will better understand the world around them, expand their curiosity, and gain compassion for their environment and all living beings. I lead a Forest School Home Enrichment program. Some of my students did not get to participate in a nature-based preschool like their siblings did due to COVID-19. I am helping the students to be immersed in a child-led/free exploration experience while making relationships with new friends in nature.
