Use of Trees

Use of Trees

Students will work together to navigate a map orienteering course, while identifying the uses of some common trees on our property. Perspectives of First Nations, Metis, and English Settler communities are showcased as students gain an understanding of how different trees have been used through history. In the afternoon, students will explore the woodlot while participating in a hike.  They will see first hand how animals use trees throughout the seasons. Strands:
