This topic works well as a series of workshops across the school year, 让我们可以探索大自然在不同季节的变化.

自然与科学杂志 – 最适合三年级及以上的学生
Recording observations in a nature journal or science notebook makes us notice more about the world around us and helps build a foundation for deeper learning. It’s not about making a pretty picture – a nature journal entry is excellent if we learn something from it. We’ll focus on using drawings, words and numbers to record information in meaningful ways. This topic can be offered as a standalone workshop or seeded across multiple workshops in a series.
