(Lightning Learning, Grades K-3, 30 minutes)

Get ready to look at the outdoor world through a mathematical lens with an eye for science! Children are filled with wonderment about their natural world, and we are able to leverage this excitement to engage them in math and science experiences outdoors. Mathematics is visible everywhere in nature, even where we are not expecting it through patterns, shapes, numbers, measurements, sequences, etc. Nature provides rich opportunities for math and science learning that will interest and engage children in real-life problem-solving.
