Sandy Creek Nature Center Homeschool Science Series
Winter 2026:
Nature Art: Nature meets your creative flair during our winter classes. Join us for the art of journal making, where you’ll discover fun and innovative ways to craft a journal that expresses your love for the great outdoors. The following month, unleash your inner writer. Weave your thoughts and feelings into words, using nature as your vibrant muse.
This is a drop off program. Younger siblings not registered may not attend the program.
Spring 2026:
Habitats: Each class we will add more knowledge about habitats. In March, explore the components of habitats and learn the basics of habitats of Georgia. In April, we will discover how we are connected to habitats and focus on what it takes to make healthy, sustainable habitats. We will end our unit by making habitat dioramas in May. Students will need to bring a shoebox or a similar sized box to the May class. This is a drop off program. Younger siblings not registered may not attend the program.
