Part III, Line 4D

An Earthwalk is a 45 to 75-minute sensory adventure for all to enjoy in any outdoor location. It is a learning experience incorporated into each of T.R.E.E.s programs conducted with school groups. One experiences this seemingly carefree walk in a forest or manicured park without any pretense about what may happen next. Yet, besides the surprises that nature can bring, each step of the way has been planned by a guide who helps each participant hone their senses of sight, smell, hearing, touch and even taste. This is a do and share approach rather than show and tell. Through a variety of short activities like Gigis Gallery where ze magique paint (water with a touch of lavender oil) makes nature pop with colour, or a stop in a Lilliputian forest (forest of moss and fungi, home to the Lilliputians), participants gain sensations through connecting with nature, discovering the variation and beauty that has always been there, waiting for them to find it. The Coronavirus Pandemic caused the cancellation of several of these experiences scheduled for spring 2020. T.R.E.E. served 22 adults and children in New Orleans City Park in fall 2019 and early winter 2020.

IRS990/Desc0Lost Treasures is a school-based, science education program for elementary students that was piloted by T.R.E.E in 2020. About 150 third grade children, 60% of which are minority and/or economically disadvantaged, benefited from alternative methods of science education becoming environmentally literate, improving academically, and understanding their ability to affect positive change in their personal lives. The main objective of this project is to establish an empowering, school curriculum-integrated environmental education program for younger students propelling their awareness of problems like climate change and the injustices they create. Children become characters in their own story where they receive proclamations to challenge themselves and work together, and discover tasks in a life-sized treasure chest in their classroom. They learn about the Animal, Mineral and Plant Kingdoms and how they interact and depend on ecosystems.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0T.R.E.E.s implementation of the Earthkeepers program provides 4th grade students with an experiential learning adventure that teaches them about the science concepts they need to succeed academically, and gives them the confidence necessary to make a difference in their own lives and in others, especially regarding the protection of our planet Earth. During this 3-day program, students travel each day to a forested Jean Lafitte National Park, and earn K.E.Y.S. symbolizing the steps of their journey. Participants earned their K (Knowledge) and E (Experience) keys by engaging in activities such as following Slippery Sally, a water speck (molecule) on adventures through the water cycle. They connected with nature through immersive activities like finding, naming, and describing the perfect wind dancer, a leaf dropped for all to see how it distinctively floats through the air. When students return to school they earn their Y and S (Yourself and Sharing) keys by (1) reducing the amount of energy and materials they use or waste; (2)sharing their knowledge and experiences with younger students, family members and friends; and (3) continuing to experience the wonders of the world through solitude, observation, discovery, and writing. T.R.E.E. educators prepared to conduct this program, but were not able to follow through due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0An Earthwalk is a 45 to 75-minute sensory adventure for all to enjoy in any location. t is one learning experience that is incorporated into eacho f T.R.E.E.s programs conducted with school groups. One experiences this seemingly carefree walk in a forest, manicured park, without any pretense about what may happen next. Yet, besides the surprises that nature can bring, each step of the way has been planned by a guide who helps each participant hone their senses of sight, smell, hearing, touch and even taste. This is a do and share approach rather than show and tell. Through a variety of short activities like Gigis Gallery where ze magique paint (water with a touch of avender oil) makes nature pop with colour, or a stop in a Lilyputian forest (forest of moss and fungi, home to the Lilyputians), participants gain sensations through connecting with nature, discovering the variation and beauty that has always been there, waiting for them to find it.
