Tree Study
Algonquin’s Vision: The educators of Algonquin will actively commit to creating a stimulating, language-rich environment that is developmentally appropriate, implements best practices, and is differentiated to meet the needs of every student. The classrooms will capture the individuality of the whole child, encourage students’ curiosity and creativity, and prepare them for future success.
Think back to your childhood - what is your experience or memories with Trees? A study of trees offer meaningful ways for children to use language and literacy , math and fine arts to investigate and represent their learning.
