I had the wonderful opportunity to contribute to the Environmental Leadership Program at the University of Oregon. I was a part of the Wild Wanderers team, guiding first-grade classrooms on outdoor education field trips and in-class lessons. Through this project, I stepped up to a leadership role, gaining communication and critical thinking skills. As a team, we developed curriculum and gave each other meaningful feedback in order to be the best educators possible. This project was highly effective, students met learning outcomes and created meaningful relationships to the world around them.
