McGinnis Woods Country Day School
We love our Nature’s Explore Outdoor Classroom and use the space often! Recently we moved our Greenhouse to the entrance of the classroom and we love the way that it draws more attention to our unique outdoor space. Our STEM teacher has created new, exciting units that capitalize on our greenhouse space. We have also added a new composting bin to create more nutrients to add to our garden’s soil.
Each year we add to our outdoor activities and curriculum and we find that the students love spending time being outdoors. Whether they are cleaning up the environment, doing an experiment, going on a nature walk or reading a good book, the Nature Explore Outdoor Classroom is the place to be!
Recently, a family visiting from abroad came to tour our school because they want their children to spend time in nature and had heard about our Outdoor Classroom. They were very excited to see the children learning by doing in nature!
