Forest School
Black Watch Entertainment
1 x 60' HD
Nature learning has been embedded in indigenous culture for thousands of years, and within the past few decades the philosophy has formalized in Scandinavian countries as "FOREST SCHOOL". This concept of alternative education is now flooding into North America and the rest of the world. Forest school is a form of early education delivered entirely outdoors – rain or shine or snow - in which students explore nature to learn personal, social and technical skills. By using twigs to write in the mud they draw their favorite animals, the trees become story-tellers as they imagine the great adventures they can have, and animals become teachers of empathy and kindness.
