We wrapped up our winter session of @takemeoutside club at @BeaconhillFMPSD with the provocation "What evidence do you have that someone else has been here?" @GEOEC @GreenSceneFMPSD @fmpsd

Playing a modi version of 360 Lacrosse taught to me on the @GEOEC fall retreat; bucket ball was a big hit for our Take Me Outside club today. The kids caught on fast and we were able to make changes to up the challenge and increase activity. @takemeoutside @albertaHPEC @FMPSD

We had fun getting out in the woods with @insideeducation yesterday! They said rain or shine, and rain it did! Left with a really cool K-3 education kit that I've already got some ideas for ~ and we woke up to snow!
