Cook County ISD 166

Every day is Earth Day! Ms. Barras' class celebrated Earth Day this week by creating collages from natural materials they found in our School Forest!

Second graders participated in the County Soil and Water Conservation District's annual Earth Day art project. Children spent time gathering natural materials on a walk in the woods and then shaped their findings into two and three-dimensional works of art. They also learned about the work of Scottish artist Andy Goldsworthy who works exclusively in natural materials. After photographing their projects, materials were returned to the woods. Amanda Hand

Fourth and Fifth Graders headed outside into the school forest today. This Outdoor Education experience was in collaboration with Shane Steele to enhance our school forest learning. Students had to locate 20 different flagged locations in the forest and take notes/observations of that location. They used a map of the forest to practice navigating this area.
