Snags and Logs with Four Winds

Today we learned all about how rotting logs, called "snags", help the environment as well as many smaller animals and insects!  The students listened to a play, inspected logs, and we were able to really dig into logs to look for animals!  After 12 years, a snag turns back into rich soil for the forest floor where new trees can grow! What an amazing cycle!  Here are some photos from our hands on learning!
