How well can you write your name?

Wilderness Wednesday

Remember what we did?

  • Do you remember all the activities we did outside, with no special equipment, no electricity, and no cost? 
  • For example: 
    • the games we played (Cougar in the cupboard, Eagle Eye)
    • the art we created with found items
    • the patterns we created with found items
    • the scavenger hunts we did (looking for all the colours of the rainbow, looking for diversity, looking for signs of animals, looking for decomposers...)
    • the things we built (Fort K, the Pleeting Mace...)
    • the sticks that were not sticks (my stick was a fishing rod, Alek's stick was a guitar...)
    • the rocks that became our solid friends
    • the Wombat Stew we created
    • the safety tips we discussed (if you get lost, meet a bear..)
  • Pick your top 3 and teach them to someone you know.
  • Most important: remember how good we always felt when we were in the forest. How satisfying it was to just go for a walk in the trees and talk about what we found. At the end of our little adventures I would ask, "How do you feel?" and the answer was usually, "I feel great!"
  • This summer, this list may be useful.

Have a safe and healthy summer! We will see you around the village! Or we will see you in September! I really enjoyed being your Kindergarten teacher. I look forward to buddy reading with you in grade 1.
