Nature Exploration, Journaling, and Hot Cocoa
Ages: 9-14
Teacher: Shannon Kim
Class Time: 10:00 am-11 am
4-8 Combined class
Winter in Chicago is cold! And we find ourselves indoors a good deal. But this can also be a beautiful time to bundle up, get some fresh air, sunshine and exercise as we observe the natural world around us. We may just need to look a little bit more closely as winter melts into spring. Using well-known naturalist and author John Muir Law’s guide, “How To Teach Nature Journaling: Curiosity, Wonder, Attention,” we’ll go outside to do fun activities that hone our observation skills, as well as be indoors for a cozy time of journaling and enjoying hot chocolate.
