Each week we get "Out of the Classroom" and into our woods! It's always neat to see what changes are happening this time of year with the leaves and animals. We heard Cedar waxwings galore and the leaves are peaking with color. #terranovamn #outoftheclassroom #fallphenology #terranovaforest #takemeoutside
In this week's Edible Earth Science, students have been working hard on their own solar oven designs and today they got to test them out! Let's just say there's a reason we chose "safe to eat raw" cookie dough. #projectbasedlearning #terranovamn #edibleearthscience #solarovenscience
Take Me Outside today focused on nature-inspired art. Creativity was flowing and the sun was shining. #takemeoutside #terranovamn #experientiallearning #outoftheclassroomintotheworld
Terra Nova is participating in the Bounce Back project. The Bounce Back Project is a unique collaboration of physicians, nurses, hospital leaders, and staff who have come together for a single purpose — to impact the lives of individuals, communities, and organizations by promoting health through happiness. You can opt-in today and be part of this to increase your happiness and overall health. #bounceback #bounceback2023 #terranovamn #projectbasedlearning #happinessandhealth
Seminars with our advisors aren't your normal seminars. This week Jess led an Edible Earth Science activity where students learned about the 3 types of rocks through a no-bake (secretly healthy) "cookie" activity. #projectbasedlearning #terranovamn #edibleearthscience
Day three of Take Me Outside at Terra Nova was a blast learning about ecosystems through a predator/prey tag game! "Out of the Classroom, Into the World" follows a continuum along with the Take Me Outside Challenge. @take.me.outside @takemeoutside #terranovamn #TMO4LearningChallenge #TakeMeOutsideWeek #outoftheclassroomintotheworld
Yesterday was another TMO afternoon filled with environmental education games, solar ovens, and more getting us "Out of the Classroom, Into the World." @take.me.outside @takemeoutside #terranovamn #TMO4LearningChallenge #TakeMeOutsideWeek #outoftheclassroomintotheworld #projectbasedlearning
Students at Terra Nova embraced our mission today on our first day of the Take Me Outside (TMO) Challenge! With our mission of Out of the Classroom, Into the World and TMO's focus of "not all classrooms have four walls," Terra Nova can uphold environmental stewardship, acknowledge the history of our land, and appreciate nature. #TMO4LearningChallenge #terranovamn @take.me.outside #outoftheclassroomintotheworld
We are always looking for ways to embrace our mission of getting "Out of the Classroom, Into the World." This week we are engaging in the international Take Me Outside Week and Take Me Outside Day!

Touring Northland College in Ashland, WI today! One of our Alumni, Channing, attends here. They even provided us free lodging in Cable, WI, in the Gatehouse. Thanks Northland College! #terranovamn #outoftheclassroom #northlandcollege
The Nobel Conference group had a blast learning, handling, and tasting insects. It truly met the "Little Body, Big Impact" conference theme! Students also enjoyed exploring the Gustavus campus greenhouse, geology museum, and art exhibits. #nobel59 #terranovamn #outoftheclassroomintotheworld #experientiallearning #insectsareamazing #geologyrocks #plantsarecool
