Nature Notebooking
What is Nature Notebooking?
It CAN be a nature scrapbook, but don't stop there!
​
Record, document, analyze, track, and diagram
​
A way to "narrate" your nature finds!
​
builds discipline and observation skills
​
trains you to see the outside differently
​
What does Ms. Mason recommend?
Leave your books inside!
​
Draw what you see, not what you imagine.
​
This is a narration - how can you increase your vocabulary? (research, diagrams, outside materials)

More text than art!
