Engage with Nature: Week 1

End your school year with ease and delight!
Whether you’re infused with fresh spring energy or limping across the homeschool finish line, it’s a good time to take school outside!
- Walk around your neighborhood.
- Play in the backyard.
- Look out the window.
Nature is there, ready to burst with new life.
It’s a wonderful moment to ground our kids in the steady cycles of nature all around us. With our Science Unit Study builder, you can also check off boxes for multiple subjects while you are at it!
Scientific exploration, including nature study, is an integral part of the Brave Writer Lifestyle. To encourage you to add or maintain nature study routines, we created twenty simple prompts to help you and yours engage with nature.
Each Friday in April, we’ll share five simple ideas.
Pick one to do the following week, then let us know what you did by sharing on Instagram (tag us: @bravewriterofficial).
Ideas for Week 1
- Get down and take a close look at a patch of ground.
- Chase the sun! Make it a quest to find the BEST spot to enjoy the sunrise or sunset.
- Wonder out loud about something you see outside.
- When your kids spot a bird or a bug or a leaf, make a BIG deal about what awesome observation skills they have!
- Count colors in nature as you drive, walk, or look out the window.
