Wrap Up (whole group discussion) Store Survival Kits and gather together to wrap up the day with a quick recap: Your body needs five nutrients to survive: protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. Plants can be a great source of all of these, but it is important to know which plants or plant parts are edible. Believe it or not, thistles are edible, and easy to identify. In 1870, a man named Truman Everts was part of the early exploration of the Yellowstone region. At some point during

Jim Costello was born in Rochester, New York, and when he was a young boy his passion for art showed (Jim Costello). Costello studied at the Ecole St. Luc art school during high school, and then continued his art career in college. The following years of teaching, Costello moved his family to northwest Virginia, and started to paint the landscapes and the different scenery around his house. In Costello art work you can tell that he is a modern painter because he uses different shapes and bright colors

materialistic world. A smile creeps across my face as I anticipate my long sought solitude. I will be safe; no one will seek me here. I will be left alone with my imagination. The old wooden bench greets me as it leans its back against a sturdy pine tree. It beckons to me to come share its secret world, to watch the day and all its happenings from

speaker wants nothing but a friendship with his neighbor but the neighbor wants the privacy that he feels he is entitled to. The speaker expresses how the neighbor is a pine cone. Pine cones are hard and nettlesome. Pine cones are very arduous. Attempting to express his feelings, the speaker could be referring to the neighbor as a pine cone, because no matter how bad he tries, the neighbor will not break into fragments. The last word or phrase that Robert Frost expressed within the poem was cows. The

buildings, I can see the sky line of the city and a light layer of pollution that hangs over it. Sound- The crunch of pine needles under my shoes (remember that I am sitting on the embankment under the pine trees across the road.) I hear the whir of the wheels on the tar as cars drive passed, I hear the clanking of chains as construction trucks drive passed, the rustling of the pine needles in the wind, the loud engines of the busses as they wait for their passengers to load onto the bus, I hear the

feeling while driving. After about an hour drive we finally made it to our destination, Camp Enfer. Camp Enfer was worn out beyond its years. Fortunately for the camp it was placed in the middle of a beautiful landscape. It was surrounded by gigantic pine trees. It had valleys that seem to go on forever. A lake that glistened in the sunshine. Hills that were greener than a Granny Smith apple picked on a sunny spring day. As I stepped out of the cab I smelled the chilly fresh air that surrounded

just water treatment. In the Fertilizer Responses of Volunteer Longleaf Pine Trees within a Loblolly Pine Plantation: Separating Direct Effects from Competition Effects paper, an experiment on the effect of fertilization on two trees was done. Before the experiment was initiated, it was known that fertilization increases the growth and productivity of the loblolly pine tree, while it was hypothesized that the longleaf pine tree is less responsive to fertilization (Anderson, 2009). The results of

Growing up I was taught to never play with fire as it was very dangerous, so I didn’t know what to expect, and I didn’t know how my actions as a firefighter would affect the population of John Day, so when I was told following the conclusion of guard school that we were going to a prescribed burn I was shocked. I still had the slimmest idea of how these prescribed burns worked, but I’d soon find out more following the car ride to the burn.     There is a lot of irony behind prescribed burns. Such

The turn of the twentieth century brought about in the United States the largest economic and industrial period of change ever experienced in the history of mankind. This period of time was characterised by big power hungry monopolies, the downfall of colonialism, devastating outbreaks of cholera and typhoid, and most importantly the rejection of old-world traditions. During this time of change, In 1914 Robert Frost published his poem “Mending Wall”. The poem is literally about the speaker and his

It is no secret how Robert Frost feels about walls after reading his poem “Mending Wall”. To say that Frost admired and favored walls would be a lie. On the contrary, based on his poem it is apparent that he would prefer there be no walls present. I was led to ask myself, what type of wall is Frost referring to? It is not merely a physical wall made of stone, but a barrier that people place among each other to create an illusion of separation and protection. The style of the poem makes it simple
