Nature Revealed is a curriculum guide filled with activities for preschool-aged children. The teacher’s guide is based on the Project Construct framework and will be provided at the workshop. This workshop is approved for ChildCare Aware Professional Development hours.
Nature Revealed is a diverse collection of learning experiences that help young students discover the relationship between nature and everyday living. Nature Revealed focuses on hands-on learning with field trip ideas and seasonal activities that will get your preschoolers outside and in nature throughout the year.
The teacher guide meets state early learning goals and both teachers and parents can use the activities to stimulate children's sense of wonder of nature.
Students will learn important lessons including how to recognize poison ivy and to leave a place cleaner than they found it. The book also has fun activities like puzzles that illustrate the connection between plant and animal products, animal tracks, and the different types of energy. These lessons focus on observing and respecting nature, which can help Missouri students become conservationists for life.
“MDC’s Nature Revealed workshop is a wonderful way for preschool teachers, home daycare providers, and homeschool parents to obtain an engaging curriculum to stimulate student curiosity with seasonal activities. The activities are designed to take advantage of local outdoor resources, so students are studying and observing species found in their backyards.”
