I was recently reading the March/April 2022 issue of \u201cScience Scope\u201d a publication of the National Science Teaching Association.\xa0\xa0In this issue, I read the section, \u201cInterdisciplinary Ideas,\u201d written by Katie Coppens.\xa0\xa0She wrote an article entitled, \u201cCreating Confidence and Community Through Nature Journals.\u201d\xa0

Nature journals are a great tool for teaching students how to think about and express science in a way that\u2019s individualized to their needs, while also connecting them to their classmates, teacher, and nature.\xa0\xa0Nature journaling also allows students to grow in their ability to observe, reflect, and document their own scientific understanding.
