The Investigate the Forest journal pages are intended to guide students in learning about Oregon’s forests while they explore the outdoors. They offer hands-on, student-centered ways to study the forest or other natural environments just outside their door and may be used before, during or after attending an Outdoor School program to enhance students’ understanding of Oregon’s forests and how they’re a vital resource. Each journal page is designed to stand alone, but may be used in conjunction with other pages in a learning progression. Individual pages can be printed for students to add to their Outdoor School journals, or they can be printed and stapled together as a complete set.
