Nature Unit Studies

Geology-led, multidisciplinary learning where grades 1–5 explore science, art, social studies, and wilderness through a single unifying theme.

About this class

Nature Unit Studies takes a single theme — often rooted in geology — and explores it through every lens: science, art, social studies, and wilderness exploration. Students see how the natural world connects across disciplines, building deep, durable understanding.

What a typical day looks like: a themed investigation in the field, hands-on science or art tied to the unit, and reflection that ties the day's discoveries back to the bigger picture.
