Home School at Oak Knoll: Young Explorers (Ages 4.5-6)
Description
Designed for the homeschool families of the youngest naturalists, each Wednesday we'll explore the changing seasons, with monthly themes like Changes in Nature, Animal Classification, and the Water Cycle.
Naturalists follow the children's curiosity, letting unexpected discoveries and spontaneous questions shape the day as much as any lesson plan, but will always include outdoor play, trail exploration, and visits with the Nature Center's animal ambassadors.
