Annie's BIG Nature Lesson
Kevin Brownell's & Tim Rupp's Gordon 3rd Grade Students
Hosted at WCCC since 2014
In the winter of 2016, 3rd & 5th grade students visited WCCC to observe nature's winter habitats, vegetation and water changes relative to their spring experience. The 5th grade students participated as 3rd graders and continue to expand their observation skills.
Annie's BIG Nature Lesson/Mission Statement
The mission of Annie's BIG Nature Lesson is to immerse children, teachers, and parents in the beauty and wonder of the natural world; to engage them in authentic scientific investigations by observing the local ecology, drawing and writing; to nurture citizens who value and protect natural resources; and to build a school-community partnership that inspires responsible environmental stewardship.
