Geoffrey Wyatt says he'd never seen one of his third-grade students get so excited as he did when he found an inchworm. “That was the first time I saw that kids find things in the forest that really bring out their personalities,' he said.
Juneau third grade teachers Geoffrey Wyatt and Ellen Canapary pose with their students in the forest on April 1, 2022.
“The very first time I ever took students out here, I had this little boy who was really, really quiet, and he started signaling for me to come over,” Wyatt said. “He’d found a little inch worm.”“That was the first time I saw that kids find things in the forest that really bring out their personalities,” Wyatt said.
“I started doing some research, and I found out that there’s so many benefits to bringing kids outside,” Wyatt said. “Kids tend to be happier, and it actually will improve reading and math scores.”
