Seasons Afield is a nature-based homeschool curriculum for Kindergarten-4th grade students, designed to connect school, nature, and home in a meaningful way, inspired by the Schullandheim approach to science and nature study. This German educational philosophy emphasizes learning through immersion in nature, fostering a deep understanding of the natural world.

This teacher guide supports parents through a literature-based approach, leveraging beautiful and impactful stories for memorable lessons and character development. Field guide notecards and watercolor cards allow your child to bring their studies into the natural world.

Based on the changing seasons, the guide leads students through exploration of topics such as plant and animal life cycles, weather patterns, moon phases, water cycle, basic botany, ecosystems, and beyond. Through nature-inspired handicrafts, art appreciation, and recipes, students engage in both creative and scientific discovery, all while developing important life skills and a sense of responsibility for the environment.

Seasons Afield meets standards for Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and includes field notecards and field watercolor cards to document observations and foster scientific thinking.

Designed to inspire a lifelong love of nature and learning, Seasons Afield supports students in building a holistic understanding of science, art, and life. Like all our studies, lessons are designed to be flexible, allowing families to tailor activities and pace to meet the needs of their students.
 

  • We highly recommend each student has their own notebook and fieldnote & watercolor cards.

Wonderfully Made 💚💚

Our favorite nature study! We did this with a group of friends and just with our family.

So intensely beautiful!

I wish all of my curriculum could look and feel like this. It is my favorite to just look at-- eye candy! I love the projects too. My kids enjoyed doing many of the activities. Also Brambley Hedge is one of our favorite books. The whole feel of the book is like walking in a beautiful garden. All of the senses are fed.

We have struggled to utilize any homeschool curriculums due to my kids' creativity, rapidly evolving interests, and intense curiosities. This curriculum is the exception! It feels more like a beautiful collection of inspirational activities than a curriculum. It saves me time, provides my kids with ton of flexibility and creative opportunities, gets us outside, and is full of quality materials we all enjoy. My kids are 2, 6, and 8 and can easily all do these activities alongside one another at a variety of levels. Please make more science curriculum like this one so we can continue using it for years to come!

This Nature Study is EXACTLY what we've been looking for. Beautiful books, wonderful hands-on learning... It's my children's favorite subject by far. I'm learning to watercolor, explore, and discover nature right alongside my kids. I would love if they produce guides for older grades too! Would recommend this to anyone and everyone.
