Things you don’t find in a typical classroom...... leg bones ! A leg bone was found today. We could see where a little mouse has been chewing on it. We made guesses as to what animal it may have been. #optoutside #yearinthewoods #natureschool #pratt

Nature - constant and ever changing.
We found our first Gall a few weeks ago. They are much easier to find now that all the leaves are gone. Today we found a bunch. We dissected two of them to find gall fly larvae inside . Did you know these insects use “antifreeze” to survive the winter. Even a gall fly larvae has predators, birds may eat them and wasps may lay their eggs in the gall. Year in the Woods. (schoolage) together, outside, all day, in all weather, one day a week, all year. #presence #yearinthewoods. Nature School (3,4,5 yr olds ) #roots #natureschool #whatdidyoulearntoday
