The Arboretum for Educators
Content and methods for teaching science outdoors
Next Workshop: What is a Tree? Part 1: Tree Architecture
Saturday, December 4
9am-11:30am
Weld Hill Research Building
This month, we will walk the landscape and learn how to “read a tree.” We will consider the visible (outer) and invisible (inner) characteristics that determine tree formation and shape, as well as the environmental conditions that may affect growth and development of trees. We will also discuss the use of a nature journal and experience different ways to record observations.
Due to current COVID restrictions, participants will need to wear a mask indoors, regardless of vaccination status. No food or drink are allowed in the lecture hall.
Save the date! January 8
