Join Symonds School teacher JJ Prior for this free Zoom talk about creating nature-based learning experiences for K–5 students.

As an experienced 5th grade teacher, JJ decided to dream high and adopt ambitious projects such as tapping maple trees, making maple syrup, and raising trout in the classroom. JJ will share the small, manageable steps he took to make these dream projects a reality, the challenges he faced along the way,
and the impact these projects have had on his students.

We created the Teacher Talk series to shine a light on nature-based teaching in the Monadnock Region. This year the Harris Center will offer a series of three teacher talks: autumn, winter, and spring. Each talk will be presented by a local elementary school teacher and will highlight how they create and guide nature-based learning experiences for their students.

4:15 to 5:30 p.m. via Zoom. To get the login details, register here. For more information, contact Jenna Spear or Jaime Hutchinson.

This event will be recorded. To ensure access to the recording, please register for this event, even if you cannot attend live.
