We live in a beautiful world, people! Grateful to have the chance to help our students see it, experience it, and develop a relationship with that which sustains us! "We'll protect what we love, but we cannot love what we do not know." @GEOEC @InsideNatGeo @rvsed #getoutside

Iโ€™m so inspired & cannot stop thinking about Chรบk Odenigbo keynote at the #OLConference24. His words have impacted my understanding of outdoor space & inclusivity. There is so much work to be done as educators. Everyone should know & feel like they belong in nature.๐ŸŒฒ๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿ”๏ธ

World Migratory Bird Day is Saturday, May 11! ๐Ÿฆ† #DYK? North America has 4 flyways for migratory birds, and what flyway passes over your region determines the different species you might be able to observe. What birds do you typically spot in your region?
