The Department of Biology, the Aldea Project and the Bilingual Programme designed an activity outdoors to show students the power of observation. 1 ESO students walked through a park near our high school to look for plants, flowers, trees … to compose their nature journals.
After a quick talk to explain the activity, they were divided in groups to find natural models to illustrate their sketchbooks. It was not an artistic purpose. The main goal was to pay attention to all the details that Nature brings us and show them in their diaries using drawings and words. The students enjoyed the experience and ,as a final project, they will make a nature journal collecting the different pages they created in this activity.
