Hi everyone! Last Tuesday, you had the opportunity to take a virtual tour with Ms. Liz through a forest near her house. We got to see pictures of the what she found and even got to take a deeper look at what else we saw other than nature itself. It had me thinking... how can we preserve the cool things we find in nature?
At school we often go on walks in which the kids LOVE to pick up various sticks, leaves, flowers, etc. When we get back to the classroom we sometimes lay them out and observe our findings with as many senses as we can. After a few days though, some of the nature findings become brown, or leaves turn crunchy, or even flowers shrinking in size and becoming too tiny to really explore.
In order to try and preserve some of the natural materials, I wonder if you can make clay to try and captivate the natural world in another way? How can you show the natural world with clay? Maybe making imprints, or even molding a flower or leaf? If you're able to- take a walk outside and collect some things and see what you can do!
Follow along with Ms. Margie as she makes some clay!
