MR. Y LET US KNOW THAT HIS STUDENTS ARE INTERESTED IN THE GREAT OUTDOORS.
THIS WEEK WE’RE GIVING HIS 4TH GRADE CLASS AT GROVEPORT ELEMENTARY AN A PLUS FOR EXPLORATION!
MR. Y, WHO IS A PARK NATURALIST, IN ADDITION TO BEING A TEACHER, TELLS US HE WAS INSPIRED BY OUTDOOR CLASSROOM DAY. IT’S A GLOBAL CAMPAIGN TO INSPIRE OUTDOOR LEARNING AND PLAY. HIS CLASS JOINED MILLIONS OF STUDENTS ALL OVER THE WORLD – INCLUDING MANY CLASSES IN OHIO – TO LEARN FROM AND CONNECT WITH NATURE.
SO, WHEN IT WAS TIME TO STUDY THE NATIVE AMERICANS OF OHIO, MR. Y’S CLASS HEADED INTO THE WOODS!
THEY COLLECTED TWIGS AND BRANCHES IN ORDER TO RE-CREATE NATIVE AMERICAN SHELTERS….
AND WE THINK IT’S PRETTY CLEAR THAT THEY SURE DID HAVE A GOOD TIME DOING IT!
MR. Y TELLS US THAT THE NEXT OFFICIAL OUTDOOR CLASSROOM DAY WON’T BE UNTIL MAY, BUT ACCORDING TO HIM, ANY DAY IS A GOOD DAY TO TAKE THE KIDS OUTSIDE.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING, MR. Y!
