LEAF's Forester Activities for the K-8 Classroom (PDF) FREE!
So you’ve been asked by a teacher to be a guest in a classroom. With
an already taxed workload, you probably don’t have the time to
prepare a presentation from scratch. This resource can help. With a
minimum amount of preparation, you can be ready to give an
age-appropriate, interactive, hands-on classroom program for any
grade between K and 8.
Program Highlights:
- Two interactive activity stations led by you and the classroom teacher allow the students to dig in to the material in smaller groups.
- A concluding activity offers a chance for review and closure.
- The user-friendly leader’s sheets make it easy to prepare for and lead each activity.
- The online PDF format makes the program materials accessible to everyone.
- A confirmation letter helps you communicate effectively with the classroom teacher.
- Information in the confirmation letter links activities in the programs to Wisconsin Model Academic Standards - important to teachers when considering classroom visitors.
- Each program enriches existing lessons from LEAF’s
Wisconsin K-12 Forestry Lesson Guides.
