In their inspiring new book, Bringing the Outside In, Sandra Duncan and Jody Martin write, "It is important to understand that everything begins outside—one must journey outside in order to be able to bring nature inside.
Bringing nature into your classroom isn’t about reaching an ultimate and final destination. It isn’t about following rules, copying ideas, or being exact and finite. It isn’t about finishing tomorrow, the next day, the next month, or even in a school year. It is about discovering simple ways you can bring nature inside—viewing the world from a new lens of always being on the lookout for natural elements you can gather from your local community—surrounding the classroom with beautiful natural elements—rediscovering yourself and all the children in your classroom. It is truly a worthwhile journey."
