Book Reviews of Into the Field: A Guide to Locally Focused Teaching (Nature Literacy Series Vol. 3) (Nature Literacy Series No. 3)
Book Review: like a field guide of ideas in your book
Summary: 4 Stars
From the intro to the conclusion I find this book a wealth of ideas for working with children in nature. As an artist/educator I am always enthused to discover ways to blend the use of writing (left brain) and drawing (right brain) activites. Clare Walker Leslie has an excellent chapter on nature journaling that has given me new ways to help my kids at the Contemporary Art Center relate in our spring and summmer studios out doors.
