This week, students at South Egremont followed coyote tracks and cracked/roasted Black Walnuts gathered in the Fall! Students designed a special place to slide down the snow and played a game about a weasel chasing voles through snow tunnels.
From Ms. Cooke:
"Once a month we get to spend part of our day with our beloved Flying Deer instructor in the nature surrounding our school in the village of South Egremont through a grant from The Berkshire Taconic Foundation and the Eagle /Janet’s Fund."
South Egremont students worked as teams of architects to brainstorm, collaborate, plan, sort, and build structures together. Children then presented as teams to the group!
Later this week they will be looking at plans from “Art Forms Architecture “ for real buildings to guide their own designs.

"For more than seven thousand years, poetry has been the recording device, the warehouse of human existence.... Poetry won't tell you how to live.....but it can reveal what it means to be alive." – a snippet of Mr. Wolgemuth's pep talk to students before they bravely recited a memorized poem in front of their classmates as part of the annual Poetry Out Loud program.
