CNED-5490: ACSR Place-Based Education

Drawing on children’s natural fascination with the world around them and their desire to make the world right, place-based education in the school setting offers the opportunity to integrate curriculum, use the school grounds and community as a laboratory and develop ecologically literate citizens. This course will focus on enhancing and deepening the Forest Days program at Brewster-Pierce Elementary School in Huntington, VT. We will work to develop greater integration between the outdoors experiences on Forest Days and the indoors, core curriculum at the school through the use of the schoolgrounds and the nearby natural and cultural resources. A limited number of teachers from other area schools will be able to attend.
