Over the course of the fall quarter the 6th graders went outside to do a little nature journaling as a part of their environmental science curriculum. They wrote about the changes in the weather and trees; they drew pictures of what they saw and composed poems.
While the 6th grade was journaling, Mrs. Williams' 9th age girls were doing the same. Last week we got together to share what we had seen.
I was extremely proud of the 6th graders that volunteered to share their journal entries, to talk about their thoughts and to critique their own work publicly--their openness allowed the 9th agers to feel really comfortable sharing what they had done.
