At WYP I helped staff co-lead groups of 8-12 elementary school students on after school trips exploring the different regions Santa Barbara
The main goal is to help the children create a connection with the nature through games, arts and crafts, and adventures in local parks, beaches, mountains, and rivers
I taught a bit about the natural history of local animals, flora and fauna, and ecosystems, and also basic survival skills using games and challenges, such as the one match challenge: where students have to gather tinder, setup a teepee, and try to start a fire with only one match
One of my groups were some of the first people to discover the rare Hoodwinker Sunfish that washed up on the Santa Barbra shore
