Eco-Lit Session II: April, Come She Will
Saturday April 12th, 2025, 10:00am–12:00pm
Description: Join Tracy Burandt, National Board Certified Teacher of English Language Arts, at Three Waters Reserve for three monthly sessions to explore literature about nature with a community of the curious. Our monthly readings will be rooted in Aldo Leopold’s A Sand County Almanac, and will also incorporate complementary readings by other great poets and prose writers. A link or alternate packet of the readings will be provided prior to the sessions. During each session, you will have the opportunity to explore the natural and restored landscapes of TWR and reflect, observe, and write or sketch. Voluntary sharing of your own work or other writing you have discovered will be encouraged!
Essential Question: How are the tools of inquiry and observation useful to both the naturalist and the writer?
Readings will include: Come High Water; Draba; Bur Oak; Sky Dance (Aldo Leopold), Spring (Edna St. Vincent Millay), A Sleepless Night (Philip Levine), and others.
Location: Three Waters Reserve, N3941 Golf Course Rd, Brodhead, WI
The class sessions will gather in the lower level of Three Waters Reserve, the headquarters of the Lower Sugar River Field Station.
What to bring: Please dress for the weather, and bring a notebook or journal. A blanket or chair is optional.
