Schools Tree Day - Let's Get Growing!

In this lesson students will explore the benefits of time in nature by going on a nature walk, then drawing a picture of a time when they were in nature. In a class discussion, students will hear about the researched benefits of time in nature, and will assert their personal opinion on the value of doing so. Students will then learn about the importance of goal setting and the connection that it has to being gritty. They will link the two concepts by setting themselves a S.M.A.R.T. goal that focuses on increasing their own time in nature.
