4-5 Grade Term 4 Seasonal Topic EcoGarden Service and Senses: This term we completed 3 spring adventure cycles. The theme for 4th and 5th Grade is “Bodies, Behaviors and Biodiversity”. The activities were designed to emphasize creating a community, cooperation, communication and conflict resolution. Students know this as “Playing Hard”, “Playing Fair”, “Play Safe”. We did service work at the Eco-Garden pulling weeds and making wood chip paths so the are healthy and bare fruit for us next year. In addition we used magnetic compasses for practice at orienteering and understanding the earth’s magnetic pull. To improve on thoses navigation skills we also played Coyote Mentoring ecology games to improve our ability to quiet our mind along with aliveness and agility in the natural world.
