Wild Child Nature School
Nature School at Wild Child is a play based program that explores natural themes and phenomenon. Students will explore ideas and make connections through experiences, technology, art, experimentation and project-work. Students will be encouraged through questions, provocations and invitations to participate. Group sizes are mindfully small.

We will participate in citizen science projects as a group.
We will care for plants and animals and observe different impacts of different growing conditions.
We will practice asking questions and attempting to answer those questions.
We will create experiments that express ideas about change.
We will document the weather and the conditions around us as they change.
