Buckling Down to Our Learning Targets

Camp has passed (sadly) and the students are buckling down to the routine of 6th grade. We had some schedule changes to accomodate additional instruction time, which challenged us (teachers and students) for awhile, but we are on target now, making our "switches" quickly and efficiently and getting used to making sure we have our supplies as we move from class to class.The teachers tell us we will be much more prepared for Jr. HIgh, by having a more challenging schedule this year. We continue to work hard on the many learning targets, while our teachers plan fun activities and interesting leaning opportunities for us to maximize our learning experience.In September we had an archeolgist visit our classes and share informtion about cave drawings and the various tools of archeology. We were excited to learn about what a real archeologist does when on a dig in the field.

Philosophy Rocks

Nature's Classroom Philosophy:

The sixth grade students will soon participate in a residential outdoor education program. Outdoor education is the use of the out-of-doors to facilitate the total education of children through experiences that can be easily returned to the classroom. Based on the premise that all students should understand our ultimate dependence upon the natural enfironment, Nature's Classroom becomes an extension of the classroom. Teachers and Students will use the out-of-doors as a laboratory in which to study and explore our natural environment. Each person participates in such activities as stream study, orienteering, Native American games, weather, geology, and many more.

Children are supervised 24 hours a day. In addition to the chaperones from school, there is a Nature's Classroom staff on hand consisting of a director and 6-12 environmental teachers.

In the event of accident or illness requiring hopitalization or a doctor's care, the camper or camper's family insurance becomes the primary coverage and Nature's Classroom's coverage is secondary. If the camper is uninsured, Nature's Classroom coverage becomes the primary coverage.

It is not necessary to have a physical for your child to participate, but you must complete and sign a Nature's Classroom health form so we may be aware of your child's particular health needs.
