When the question, "Can we live on Mars?", blows up in your face, the inquiry process takes over. I feel like I lost track of all the skills and knowledge being developed, but the outcome was obvious, Pride and Joy (for me and them).

Freeplay and exploration for today's #Walkabout on Thursday. Watched a muskrat, climbed trees, chased each other, and played camouflage. #walkaboutwednesday

Earth Day Art Installation Challenge. Good vs. Evil with plastics and "bad guys in grey " against "good guys in green." This was really fun, and the collaborative part was brilliant. #EarthDay2023

Sometimes the outcome of your plans is in the way you frame it. Thanks, Take Me Outside for an incredible Outdoor Educators learning experience and to Paul Britton for always pushing my thinking. And also to OKLearns for supporting my growth. This was a powerful investment.

Kingfisher salmon release. We watched these little guys grow from eggs to fry, and now they're on an epic journey of survival. What an honour to be part of nature's work. #walkaboutwednesday #Secwépemcterritory

#walkaboutwednesday was all about #scattervision. 👀 up, down, sideways, under, over, behind, through...& wow! We found 🐍, 🐢, herons, 1000s of 🐦 s, insects galore, & ALL the plants. Back @ school we categorized them and discussed why they thrive on #Syilxterritory #desert

What a game changer! Nature Journals have really helped my kids connect with the land and it's creatures and to see themselves as part of it all. #Okanagan #syilxterritory #walkaboutwednesday #proudteacher

Bags are packed. Kids are excited. Teacher is already tired. Haha...NEVER! Time to create some "Camp Magic" at Silver Lake on #syilxterritory. Just another way to be part of the land. No big deal, right?
