📓 Paired Nature Journal Start

Students examine a teacher model of a paired nature journal entry that includes one academic observation and one feeling, then practice making their own first entry with drawings, sentence frames, labels, or voice recording. Partners give feedback to 2 peers, receive feedback, and revise by checking whether the entry includes clear evidence from the forest and an honest feeling. The teacher uses a quick readiness check to confirm each student can use the journal format that will continue across later forest visits.
