Signs of the Season Field Trip Series

Students will explore nature’s seasonal changes and adaptations through hands-on discovery throughout the year. During three guided hikes in fall, winter, and spring, students will use their senses and simple tools to observe plants, animals, and weather patterns. Through these seasonal field trips, students will compare and identify signs of change and build an understanding of how living things adapt throughout the seasons.
