To create an outdoor learning experience for their students as well as rebuild their school landscape in the wake of a tornado, Ms. Turner and Ms. Renn construct outdoor learning centers. Students plant a pioneer garden to explore the early settlers’ survival needs, develop wetlands to learn about small ecosystems, and build a weather station to chart weather systems and their affect on the environment.
