Heal Farms Field Trip

On Friday, May 31 our class will be going back to Heal Farms to harvest the fruits and vegetables we planted in the fall. I want to remind everyone that they have appropriate free dress and they need to bring a lunch with them. Look for pictures to come sometime this weekend from the Field Trip.

Outdoor Ed Day 3 Day and Evening Activities

Good Evening Everyone-
It has been an extremely long day so this will be a short post. I am including our 5th and 6th albums in this post. These will include everything I have from day 3. I went on the Night Hike tonight so I was not able to get pictures of everyone doing their evening activities.

Everyone is doing well but a little tired tonight (including me). The weather has been amazing and the kids are working so hard. I hope you enjoy the pictures.

Everyone is doing great!!

Outdoor Education Day 2

Hello Again Everyone-
So today was a very busy day for us up here. Ms. Novikoff and I went to the beach with a great group of students. We took a ton of pictures. I also gave a few camera out to some students who were staying back at camp to do some other activities. I have taken every picture and created an album of all our days events.

At the beach we were lucky enough to see some whales breaching. This was amazing. In all my years coming up here I have never seen anything like that. I did take some pictures of this so make sure you look at those. The weather was fantastic!

The kids are doing fantastic and having a blast. I am really proud of all of them. I am done posting for the night and will have more pictures up tomorrow around lunch time.

Outdoor Education Day 1 Evening Activities

Here are some pictures from Monday nights activities. The students are broken into 3 groups. One group did Earth Dance where they learn different dance steps from around the world. The second group went to Ocean Odyssey which gets them ready for Beach Day. The final group goes on the night hike where we had a special treat this week. Can you guess what it is?  I will be posting more pictures later tonight once I have had time to upload them.

Enjoy!!!
