30x30 Nature Challenge

Our class is super excited to participate in the David Suzuki 30x30 Nature Challenge!  The challenge is to spend 30 minutes a day in nature, for 30 days!


David is challenging every individual, workplace, or class to get out into nature.  Did you know that children today spend less time outdoors than any other generation in human history (right from his website)?  Studies show that being in nature increases creativity and problem solving abilities and can reduce stress!

Our class is going to work hard to get out and enjoy nature as much as possible.  Sometimes we'll reflect on our earth and nature during recesses but other times we'll take our learning outside.  What an interesting classroom the outdoors is, with so much to discover!  We'll take time to read, write, draw, think, and investigate outside.
