Everyday Science & Nature Journaling: Nurturing Literacy Skills in Science Students

Join us for an exciting Professional Development experience where you’ll explore the beautiful Grassy Waters Nature Area by canoe or on foot, gathering valuable data and immersing yourself in science journaling. Be sure to come prepared with suitable outdoor clothing to fully engage in nature observation activities.

This workshop is designed to introduce educators to two innovative types of student journaling: everyday science journals and surprise journals, along with the classic nature journals. Interactive sessions, discussions, and practical exercises will enrich your understanding and application of journaling techniques, equipping you with strategies to nurture literacy skills, curiosity, and critical thinking in your students.
