    The Dirt Hill

    The Dirt Hill

    We had a lot of fun climbing and sliding down the steep dirt hill while pretending to be werewolves, princesses, and a character called "nightmare moon." By the end of the day many of us were covered in a layer of dusty dry dirt! We went on a hike to look for more spicebush. We noticed that the red berries are starting to form. We also found some fresh mystery scat in the creek and a log covered with shaggy scalycap fungi. We made sun prints of leaves and ferns. We've been
    Animal Actors and Spicebush Tea

    Animal Actors and Spicebush Tea

    We played one of our favorite games on Tuesday. We pass out cards with pictures of animals that live in our forest. There are two of each animal.

    Our First Week

    Our First Week

    We had a great first week of forest school exploring the land and making new friends! We played some fun songs around the fire circle to help learn names including "The Soup Song" and "Down on the Farm." We went on some short hikes through the forest and played in the creek. Whenever we stopped to look closely at the ground we discovered a variety of living things - snails, salamanders, skinks, worms, crawdads, centipedes, and a lot of fungi. This gave us the idea to start
