What can you find in nature?

Jacob and Molly spent some of the morning collecting things found in nature. By providing a wooden box with dividers, the children were inspired to collect found objects and sort them into the different spaces. Jacob and Molly collect smooth stones, large stones, sticks, baby acorns, and purple flowers. Observing, sorting, and classifying are important mathematical skills that the children were engaging with while enjoying the wonder of nature around them!
