Connecting with nature was a wonderful way to jump into our creativity. Naomi took a walk in the wild and came back with a beautiful drawing and poem about a bird. She first went into nature, completed a free write of her thoughts-anything that came to mind, and then she drew a bird. Then, came a beautiful poem, shared below. She also made a video presentation on her poem and talked about how it is important to feel free.
"birds come in all diffrant sizes and all diffrant colors.
They fly, they walk.
What they all have in commen is they all talk and they are everyware in the sky, on the ground, in trees, on water.
Bird's are wonderful and free as can be..
but sometimes I wonder, how free are we?"

We learned about essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson and how his need for nature fueled his creativity.
