While on a nature walk full of opportunities for sensory exploration, students will look under logs, listen for birds and feel tree bark as they explore biodiversity and observe creatures in their natural habitats.

Students will explore our ecosystems by classifying animals into groups, learning about animal needs, adaptations and survival. During a hike, students will find many forest, meadow and pond creatures.

Students will learn about decomposers and how they help cycle nutrients through the ecosystem during an interactive hike that will have them rolling logs and looking for areas where decomposition occurs. 

During a naturalist-led hike, students will learn about life cycles of animals from our forest, pond, and meadow ecosystems.
