This teacher-friendly book combines curriculum plans, practical advice, and in-the-field experience so that educators of all stripes can bring journaling to their students or families. Full-color illustrations and sample journal pages from notable naturalists and novices show how to put each lesson into practice.<\/p>\n<p>Best of all, it encourages the things we need most at this moment: routines and rituals, creative expression, observation and concentration, engagement with nature, and connection with each other (even if from a distance!).<\/p>\n<p>Are green spaces near you closed or inaccessible? Nature journaling can happen anywhere, from a kitchen window to a neighborhood stroll. With the right tools and ways of observing, you can document the bird sitting on a telephone wire, the beans in your pantry, the flower blooming in your neighbor\u2019s front yard, the weed pushing through the cracks in the sidewalk, or the vine creeping up the side of your apartment building.<\/p>\n<h4>Learn How to:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>give students step-by-step strategies for effective nature journaling<\/li>\n<li>manage student groups in the outdoors<\/li>\n<li>encourage participation from all learners<\/li>\n<li>modify instructions to meet your students\u2019 needs<\/li>\n<li>teach drawing, math, writing, and scientific thinking<\/li>\n<li>connect journaling to educational standards<\/li>\n<li>incorporate journaling into longer lessons<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Can be used with:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>5E Instructional Model<\/li>\n<li>Charlotte Mason-Inspired Education<\/li>\n<li>Common Core State Standards<\/li>\n<li>Next Generation Science Standards<\/li>\n<li>Waldorf Education, Forest Schools, Outdoor Education, and more<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A great way to get started is to watch this\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/johnmuirlaws.com\/teach-nature-journaling-video-workshop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">video workshop<\/a>\u00a0from a class I gave on how to teach Nature Journaling.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Free download!<\/strong>\u00a0You can download the book today.

In this book and this work, I find hope. Laws and Lygren have created\u00a0a powerful and practical resource for teachers to help children and adults discover, explore, love, and protect the natural world around them. Nature is magic, and everyone needs it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u2013Robert Bateman, artist, naturalist, and founder of the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/batemanfoundation.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bateman Foundation<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cHere is a natural way for parents and teachers to integrate the beauty and mystery of nature into the lives of children. The book itself is a work of art.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u2014Richard Louv, author of\u00a0<em>Our Wild Calling\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0<em>Last Child in the Woods<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis book beautifully demonstrates how nature journaling is a valuable, multidimensional approach to science. Through this work, students build neural pathways that enable different brain regions to communicate with each other, resulting in more flexible thinking and creative problem-solving in all areas of life. This approach to nature journaling also offers students an excellent way to learn and practice a growth mindset through nature and science.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u2014Jo Boaler, Professor of Education and Equity, Stanford University; founder and faculty director of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youcubed.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">youcubed.org;<\/a>\u00a0author of<em>\u00a0Mathematical Mindsets\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0<em>Limitless Mind<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"trim-size\">Related Resources:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-laws-guide-to-drawing-birds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Laws Guide to Drawing Birds<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-laws-sketchbook-for-nature-journaling\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Laws Sketchbook for Nature Journaling<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-laws-guide-to-nature-drawing-and-journaling\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Laws Guide to Nature Drawing and Journaling<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>31 hands-on field activities to connect art, science, math, and critical thinking, while encouraging students and mentors alike to recognize and record the wonder and beauty in the natural world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":46375,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[243,21,22,23,24,25,34,112],"product_tag":[991],"composite_virtual":false,"composite_layout":"","composite_add_to_cart_form_location":"","composite_editable_in_cart":false,"composite_sold_individually_context":"","composite_shop_price_calc":"","composite_components":[],"composite_scenarios":[],"bundled_by":[],"bundle_stock_status":"instock","bundle_stock_quantity":null,"bundle_virtual":false,"bundle_layout":"","bundle_add_to_cart_form_location":"","bundle_editable_in_cart":false,"bundle_sold_individually_context":"","bundle_item_grouping":"","bundle_min_size":"","bundle_max_size":"","bundled_items":[],"bundle_sell_ids":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.11 -
