Science class outdoors

I'm looking forward to taking several of our planned science lessons, outdoors, this year. I worked hard to rearrange science lessons for the year in a way where similar topics were presented on the same day. As a science nut myself, I have a blast expanding on lessons so we can get the most out of our excursions. Today, we took kindergarten and 2nd grade "plants & animals" to Mount Tamalpais.
