The class illustrates the delicate care we need to exhibit for one of our most important resources. Class activity will focus on exploration and experimentation. The vital role and incredible diversity of insects will be illustrated through field study and hands-on observation. Emphasis will be placed on specialization, structure, life cycle, and classification. Activities will include collection and identification of local insects.
Emphasis is placed on the basic elements required for survival as well as on survival skills.
Activities include building a solar still and creative use of available resources to aid in survival situations. Activities include an astronomy hike to observe constellations and any other heavenly bodies, such as planets and satellites, which may be visible. Students will collect and identify local plants using appropriate field guides. The cause and effect of man's relationship with the animals and their environment will also be discussed. Academically, the classes are geared toward research and discovery, allowing students to investigate Creation and encouraging them to synthesize what they have learned and apply it in their lives.
