In the Science sessions, through the observation of our surroundings, we have found different clues that have helped us discover which animals were hiding behind them.
Their traces have left footprints that have helped us observe each of their characteristics much more closely: for example, the feathers of birds; the trail of slime from snails; the feces of some cats looking for food in the garden; or some pinecones nibbled by our dear squirrels.
It hasn’t been an easy task, as at times we would encounter many of the animals mentioned in this exhibition, but upon seeing us or hearing our steps, the very scared ones would run away.
Every corner of our school is filled with places full of new learning, challenges, and magical hideouts. And who knows, we can always fill our pockets with incredible treasures provided by nature, and on this occasion, our precious forest.
«The school must be able to read the concrete reality surrounding the child. Geography is that of their neighborhood; history, that of their family.»
