We ventured into the woods on Friday and created "Andy Art", inspired by Andrew Goldsworthy. Andrew Goldworthy is a British artist (born in 1956) who creates sculptures out of the natural world around him. We had our first look at Andy Art when we visited Shelburne Farms for our geology field trip. We continued our leanring in the woods as students created amazing works of art, completely inspired by their natural environment! Enjoy! :)

Yesterday we visited Shelburne Farms. We learned about geology. Geology is the study of the earth.
We all had an amazing time learning about the rocks around us! We took some great pictures!
Ask your child about their favorite part, including the four stations listed below. :) Enjoy!
