The Big Backyard uses nature walks to provide hands-on learning in science and social studies, while incorporating writing, math, and art – as well as the student’s own natural curiosity skills. These walks were designed for the schools by naturalist, Bev Morrison (master environmentalist), Fran Ludwig (retired K-5 science coordinator and science teacher), and parent volunteers.

The walks below are the original walks written by Bev Morrison and are here for your reference.
