The Nature Explorer program is a series of nature classes designed to supplement homeschooling curricula. We explore various topics through interactive lectures as well as hands-on activities both inside and outside. We also provide a Parent Page, an outline of the day’s presentation for review and/or portfolio use.
The spring session will touch on animal senses and then focus on various habitats. Students will maintain a nature journal throughout the session. Families should bring a notebook and pencil or pen to each class.
As with any other class, students are expected to attend each session. Sarett requests the parents of our six- to nine-year-old students stay to assist their children unless they also have younger children who require supervision (outside the classrooms, please). Parents of our older students (10 years and up) are welcome to stay and share the discoveries, but their presence is not necessary.
For any further information, contact Eileen at Sarett Nature Center: (927-4832) or eileenc@sarett.com.
*Please note: it is important to make as informed a decision as possible when choosing your student's Community Resource classes. Most locations will allow a student to drop a class after one meeting, at no charge if it wasn't a good fit for the student, but not all. Some classes plan ahead based on the number that have signed up and have purchased materials, hired teachers, etc. and there might be a fee for class time or materials given to the student if the student drops after one or two meetings. The school cannot pay for classes that students do not complete, so choose wisely; if you do not take the class off of your student's schedule by the deadline, you may be asked to pay for the class time incurred prior to dropping the class.
