Following a trail through Shady Creek’s beautiful Old Growth Forest Preserve, students will culminate this class by sitting quietly beside a small stream in the heart of the preserve. There they spend 30 minutes quietly observing and reflecting. Alone, and yet still safely supervised, students use writing and art to record their impressions. This is the only class at Shady Creek where students have the opportunity to be in a natural area, one on one with nature. Later, after everyone is re-gathered, students have the opportunity to share their feelings and observations with the rest of the class. |
