Taking the classroom outdoors

I love taking traditionally indoor activities outside. I often find that children who choose particular favorites inside choose others when the same choices are offered outdoors. The Scientist Lunch Bunch kids took full advantage of a warm fall day. Instead of working inside, we gathered a supply of art materials and headed out. Jayden worked on creating a mural of her class. Becca joined in and the girls began a lively discussion of how to draw each classmate. With the blacktop as a work surface, we had plenty of room to spread out our large poster board sheets.
