Use outdoor spaces for education
Though the year is starting virtually there is still a great space to learn physically. Our blacktop (area 7) allows for social distance for over 100 people. The Outdoor Classroom Amphitheater seats over 36 students with social distancing, and our Veggie Garden holds four 4'x12' planting rows allowing space for 10 agricultural learners. These plots are perfect for scholars to roll up their sleeves and create their own green studies. The blacktop itself is a great space for learning to ride a bike, skate, or practice physical activities outside.
The MWS rain garden has tiger loop; a mulched path to explore numerous native plants. We share a learning garden for peaceful learning and instruction. These public outdoor spaces are a place for our scholars to visit, explore, and learn in. We encourage families to take logical safety measures in any outdoor adventures. Exercise and learning go together, and safer outdoors than crowded indoor spaces. Please practice social distancing, wear a maks, wash your hands and be safe. See 15 resources to get kids outside! |

Fall Into Fun School Clean-UpsGrounds Clean-ups and Maintenance were full of fun.
We got together four times to update the school grounds. Our impact was so much more than making it look good. Clean-ups are an important part of getting out kids and parents involved in being a part of our environment. We all want the places where we spend time to be a beneficial environment. Our outdoor educational spaces are places of tiger pride. Our back to school clean-ups are one for each fall month to ensure social distancing. Together we:

Celebration Harvest/Plant fall greensWe collected our summer harvest on October 18 and 19th. Saturday and Sunday from 10a.m.-noon we collected harvested and replanted for the fall. Seeing the seasonal cycle through plants helps our scholars connect time and life cycles in our world. We encourage families and pods to see this familiar cycle with us, or at another time. The space is available to share and learn together.
We plan to identify harvest and plant:

Virtual Green Connection
We are preparing together through cyberspace to connect and find green inspiration.
Quarter four 2020 was through the digital cyberspace. We shared some of the fun of connection while staying socially distant and safe.
In 2021 we will be starting virtually with Augmented reality, which offers many online opportunities to connect and share. Energy Captains Club (ECC) will meet on Wednesdays from 1-2. The Council of Green Leaders will meet from 2-3 on Wednesdays. We apologize for the delay but are happy to postpone to ensure in-person learning rollout is focused on. Space will be limited so please send an email to reserve your spot today! More information is coming after the in-person rollout is complete.
