Abstract

ABSTRACTThe Drawn to Nature program is a collaboration between the museum and a local school district that encourages first graders to explore the ponds, meadows, forests, and sculpture on the 145-acre nature preserve of the Nassau County Museum of Art in two seasons. Students engage in active, developmentally appropriate learning through movement across the grounds, observational sketching of the various elements of nature, close analysis of the natural world in two seasons, and collective discovery of our outdoor sculpture. First graders discover seasonal changes and the world around them through the lens of both science and art.
