Grades 5 and 6
Join Sid for a workshop where we look at the pieces of nature that exist all around us and explore ways to lovingly document, preserve, and care for the things we find (while leaving them where they belong). Participants will draw and write about their chosen treasures and the surrounding environment, sparking stories to tell and coming away with fun games and activities for interacting with the natural world.
This workshop is great for homeschoolers and students in grades 5 and 6 (caregivers and teachers welcome)!
