2013-2014
Mrs. Slimskey’s KindergartenSt. Peter’s Regional School
Liberty, New York
Adventurous experiences out-of-doors kindle the enthusiasm of the young and develop their concern for others, for their community and for the environment.
Such experiences provide the means of self-discovery, self-expression and enjoyment which are both stimulating and fulfilling.

I tried using literature to inspire the beginning of our adventures in the woods! It worked!

First day in the woods!

Day 2 in the woods!
On our third day into the woods, the students started to get more sophisticated
with their fairy house building, incorporating more treasures and working
as teams.
The students also started using classroom tools to investigate what was in this new environment, and make
connections with things learned in class!
Centipedes and Pill bugs!
