Ogden Nature Center

Objective

Help students review what they learned during their visit to the Nature Center using various creative mediums. 

Materials

Varied, see below

Procedure

1. As a class brainstorm memories and images of their visit and write all ideas on the board.
2. Allow students to work in small groups or by themselves.  Provide various mediums to allow students to be creative and go on a writing or visual arts adventure.

Options that you could offer include:  torn paper collages, water colors, dramatic arts (students could write simple skits to reenact something they remember), poetry forms such as haiku and limericks, and whatever else you might like to incorporate.

Nature is not a competition.

It doesn’t really matter, when you go out, if you don’t identify anything.

What matters is the feeling heart.
