Nature is the perfect environment to explore, ask questions, and have fun. Nurturing a child’s innate tendencies toward exploration, sensory stimulation, can lead to quality outdoor STEM activities. The rich diversity of settings and materials of nature gives rise to questions and inquiry for deeper learning.
In second grade we use STEM and nature to foster student’s curiosity and exploration of the the world. Spending time outside with students provides so many benefits, including increased student engagement, expanded learning for students, and STEM skill development.
