Ms. Susie Jackson's 5th Grade Class at Blue Ridge Middle School

Dear Friends of White Mountain Mountain Nature Center:

Great news! Gil Alvidrez (6th grade teacher) and I are working with the Nature Center to create some exciting and experiential outdoor lessons to support our science and social studies curricula. We will be piloting a program this year that will eventually be available to all teachers and students in our mountain communities.

These nature-centered activities will include observation, data collection, graphing, research, language arts, and much more. We need your help! With the ever increasing budgetary issues, teachers are in need of resources. We would like to have a copy of the new Field Guide to Woodland Lake Park for every Blue Ridge teacher this year (and for all of the White Mountain area teachers in the very near future).

If you would be interested in helping with this project, you can purchase the field guide, through the Nature Center, for just $10.00 and designate it to be donated to a teacher. The staff at the center will deliver the field guides to the teachers. We look forward to working with the community on this wonderful opportunity for our children.

Susie Jackson, 5th Grade Teacher, Blue Ridge Middle School
