Who's Using Our Trail? A Kindergarten Forest Classroom Investigation

Our local elementary kindergarten classes have a forest classroom and we have a blue-blazed trail that runs through the woods to it. The trail we created is an active game trail which we modified a tiny bit for our weekly trek on Woods Wednesday. The trail is covered by leaves and also has many ancient rotting stumps under the surface. This makes for a slightly soft feel underfoot and is not conducive to animal tracks being visible. And, since many of the animals that use the trail use it at night, we set out a game camera to capture Who's Using Our Trail! Volunteering is fun!
