Breaking News! We regret to inform you that the Waubun Media Center has... Bookworms! If you see one of these hitchhiking friends please send tell them to head back to the insect section so we can gather them all up and bring them somewhere warmer.
Happy April 1st! We hope you got a good laugh from this fun post.


🌿 Exploring, Creating, and Growing at the School Forest! 🌿
There’s nothing quite like seeing the wonder and excitement in children’s eyes when they step into the School Forest! Today was filled with creativity—whipping up imaginary treats in the mud kitchen, crafting unique necklaces, and building teamwork while gathering firewood for a “bonfire.” The obstacle course was a great way for students to challenge their large motor skills, all while having a blast outdoors!
Every outdoor experience is an opportunity to learn, explore, and grow. Thank you to the amazing Kick Start team for partnering with The School Forest Teachers tp make these moments possible! 💚

🌿 WOWE 5th Grade Sugar Bush Camp Update 🌿
This week, our WOWE 5th grade students continued their Sugar Bush Camp experience at the school forest! They checked their taps, recording sap amounts, temperature, time, and date—data that will be used later.
A special highlight was a demonstration by Jimmy Uran from Natural Resources, who showed students the traditional way of making Pine Pitch using pine sap, bear fat, and coal. Students also engaged in a Notice & Wonder activity, which will help them develop hypothesis statements.
Additionally, they began an experiment exploring how plants obtain the materials they need to grow, investigating the role of air and water in plant development.
Stay tuned for more updates on their learning journey! 🍁🔥
