Nature Unleashed
Nature Unleashed includes a student book, science notebook, and teacher guide to help elementary students learn about Missouri’s ponds, forests and prairies.
This workshop covers the Discover Nature Schools programs Nature Unleashed (3-4 grade), & Nature Unhooked (5-8 grade). This hands-on, inquiry-based teacher workshop will be an engaging foundation for the both Nature Unleashed & Nature Unhooked lessons. The student materials are aligned to the Missouri Learning Standards and the Next Generation Science Standards. We will discover plant and animal life in Missouri’s ponds, prairies, and forests plus the local aquatic life and their importance to people and natural communities.
