Were you lucky enough to see the northern lights a week ago? One of our former families thoughtfully sent us these pics they snapped from our parking lot! 💚💜💙

I'm so grateful for the amazing network of nature-based early childhood educators in Minnesota. The supportive, collaborative approach of this group has created opportunities for hundreds of children in MN to participate in Nature-based learning.

It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we must report that PLHS Special Education Teacher Brad Bulver passed away last night after a brave battle with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, or ALS. Brad was a teacher at the high school for almost 26 years. /1

Loved having the opportunity to connect with these educators and share about the Nature Preschool approach. It was also inspirational to hear about their early childhood programs in Singapore. Looking forward to our continued collaboration! #NaturePreK

[Oak Ridge Elementary @OakRidgeMagnet]

Last week we welcomed early childhood educators from Singapore to Oak Ridge. They spent the afternoon observing our Nature Preschool classroom. There was just enough snow for us to show them how to build a snowman. We look forward to collaborating with these educators!

We ❤️ outdoor learning at Oak Ridge! Color matching, scavenger hunts, nature observation, and playing together are just a few of the ways we learn outside, like these first graders in Ms. Martinez's class and kindergartners in Ms. Rojas Duarte's class. 🍁🌳🎨

[Oak Ridge Elementary @OakRidgeMagnet]

Did you know Oak Ridge has a School Forest? Second graders had their first Forest Friday of the year today. They're excited to learn and explore in our School Forest all year long! 🌳🌲

[Anna Dutke @ADutke]

Proud to be a part of this school and the amazing work that is happening to create engaging and meaningful learning experiences outdoors! #TeachOutdoorsMinnesota

[Oak Ridge Elementary @OakRidgeMagnet]

Oak Ridge is one of five schools in the state awarded funds for outdoor learning opportunities for K-2 learners. Keep an eye out for Oak Ridge students and staff in this MDE video about nature-based learning opportunities for children in Minnesota! https://t.co/nUDKFKO9Rc

[Anna Dutke @ADutke]

5 sites, 3 weeks, and 170 miles of traveling to support the teams. Summer PreK was officially a success! So proud of the amazing teachers and their inquiry-based instruction this Summer! These students are ready and excited to learn in Kindergarten!

[Anna Dutke @ADutke]

A perfect finale to a day of planning the launch of my Education Minnesota IMPACT grant. Excited to partner with Joe and Wolf Ridge to support outdoor learning at Oak Ridge Elementary and Cedar Park Elementary.
