Environmental Science
Please help your nature explorer to have a safe and fun time outdoors by wearing athletic shoes (not sandals) and easy care clothing to school every day!
Your child will be using his/her senses to taste fruits and vegetables will be using the leftover cores and peels to help our compost bins grow to make new "special" soil. The compost will be fun to watch when we add the class Halloween pumpkin and observe how it changes over the next couple months. We will also take a "sensory" hike where the students explored the sights, smells, and sounds of our Lamplighter creek area.
This fall we will be observing and learning about cycles in our outdoor education areas. Composting our pumpkins and watching our growing gourds are some of the many cycles we will be watching right in our own Lamplighter gardens.
