Bolinas-Stinson School Student Exhibition: Seals, Snakes, Birds, and More … Oh, My!

The wonder of our local environment provides an endlessly engaging and authentic context for learning. This exhibition features the creative expressions of Bolinas-Stinson Schools students inspired by an interdisciplinary approach fostered by their teachers in collaboration with Point Reyes National Seashore Association. Together, the BSUSD art shop, homeroom teachers, and PRNSA representatives created a science matrix to explore phenomena occurring in our local environment. Guided by this information and related questions, outdoor exploration, and art materials, students were encouraged to express their ideas through science and art, and in doing so, deepen their understanding of how the health and well-being of the natural environment are interconnected with the health and well-being of their daily lives.
