RANGERS PROGRAM RUNS BY SEMESTER FOR CONTINUITY, ROUTINE & STRONG FRIENDSHIP BUILDING.
WE ENGAGE & LEARN THROUGH MOVEMENT & WHOLISTIC HANDS-ON LEARNING.
THIS AGE WANTS TO BE CHALLENGED AND WE WORK WITH THIS DEEP NEED TO LEARN & GROW. WE LEARN GENTLY, & POSITIVELY. WE WORK WITH POSITIVE SELF TALK, AS WELL AS ENCOURAGING OTHERS AND BUILDING ONE ANOTHER UP.
​Rangers 4 has many choices of activities
The whole class will learn together and do some whole class projects. We will also have time in class to choose other activities and projects and break up into groups or individual projects.
Some activities are more weather or seasonal.
We will often cook. While we will often share some of the food we cooked in class always bring a lunch and water. As it gets cooler we will work on fire building and cook over a fire, a favorite for many.
Some things we may will work on over the semesters, upon interest of the class.
​
Archery, Fire-Building in a variety of weather and conditions- Working on Gourd Bowls, Knapping stone to make arrowheads, Arrow Building, Whittling and Wood Carving- Shelter Building, Cooking, and working on Garden projects making a weaved fencing or container and planting, working on animal fencing ( and some farm animal exposure) making Clay Pottery and firing over a fire- Animal Husbandry (learning how to care for and raise animals, Farm Chores, Survival Skills, Orienteering

THERE'S MORE....MORE INTERESTED IN ANIMALS, ART, HERBS, SEWING PROJECTS OR CRAFTS?
​
Sometimes this class pulls in more "guys" with a list like this! However we have a lot of other things to do to!!
​
More things we can do...based on interest
We have animal projects and time with animals. We have a long list of animals here. We have a lot of opportunities for nature art, herbal education like learning about herbs for ailments, salves, first aid etc and love teaching this to those interested. Learning more about gardening, plants, using the plants for food, herbs, preserving, art, dyes. Botanical dying projects...making natural plant water colors and natural dyes. Soo fun!
​
​
WE ENJOY SPECIAL DAYS TOO, LIKE BIRTHDAYS & HOLIDAYS TO ADD A SPECIAL & EXCITING ELEMENT FOR DEEPING IMPORTANT EVENTS & MEMORIES.
RANGERS IS DESIGNED FOR FORWARD LEARNING, CREATING FRIENDSHIPS, FEELING COMFORTABLE IN OUR NATURAL SPACES & WITH THEMSELVES. WE TREAT OTHERS WITH KINDNESS & EMPHASIZE EMPATHY AND UNDERSTANDING ONE ANOTHER. WE WORK TOGETHER WITH POSITIVE CONFLICT RESOLUTION & UNDERSTANDING OURSELVES & OTHERS.
