Show Utah School Districts Opening Classes in Environment, Ecology hills? Why To a sprouting seven year old are there ant girl, ants can be a very pesky problem. They crawl on your legs, your doll, and even your peanut butter and Jelly sandwich which Mamma packed for school lunch. Ants can be pesky things. So its not so surprising for an elementary school teacher to hear a child ask with some tone of disgust, 'Teacher, why are there ant hills? Only a short time ago a question like this mi glit have been quickly answered and then sidestepped in favor of more traditional academic subjects. But according to Mrs. Louise Hetzel, 2nd grade teacher at the Helen M. Knight school in Moab, Utah, its questions like these that open up a new world of pupil teacher communication. Somehow in growing up we lose the view of the immediate soil we're standingon, indicates Mrs. llvtzel. A child, while being two to three feet closer to the ground, is immeasurably closer to the leaves, the grass, and the sand and earth in which he plays. A skillful and creative teacher can use this as a way to teach the give and take that is characteristic of natures balance. Mrs. Hetzel, in Moab, is one of the many Utah teachers now involved with a program of en- -. vironmental education. Many of the students who daily fill her classroom come from rural areas surrounding this southeastern Utah community. However, says Mrs. Hetzel, this is no reason to believe they don't need instruction on their environment. Most youngsters from the farms and ranches around Moab are just as much in need of this type of training as are children from urban areas. Because . there are no course manuals or curriculum guides, Louise Hetzel has built her own course of instruction. She feels many of tlie ecological problems facing us now are much too complex for children to understand. She has taken situations such as air, water, and noise pollution and broken them down to elemehtary principles and visual exhibits. Most of those exhibits are located on the grounds of the Helen M. Knight Elementary School. A certain area of the school yard Is set aside as a sort of ecological reserve; an area where the children let nature take its course. Within this section there are salt bushes, Juniper trees and a multitude of plants common to the Moab area. There are also ant hills, one of which the youngsters have encircled with a metal fence to further.protect the areas natural state from outside encroachment. Here the children can see firsthand how every element plays its part in natures scheme . . and if you remove one element how the balance is upset. An old cabin also occupys part of the school's ecological reserve. The cabin which was brought in from an outlying area and reassembled, is used by the children in recreating what living at Moab was like during the early years of settlement. Om addition to the cabin on the grounds, Mrs. Hetzel and others working with the National Park Service have succeeded in establishing an Environmental Study Area at the site of the Turnbow Cabin in nearby Arches National Monument. This area is specifically used for environmental instruction. The Grand School District, Sparked by Mrs. Hetzels example. has embarked on an expanded program of environmental education. The district is making extensive use of the Turnbow Cabin area and has instituted an outdoor education summer school class for junior and senior high school students. Young people enrolled in the class visit Mesa Verde National Park, Canyonlands National Park, the Texas Gulf Sulphur and Atlas Minerals Plants; all with a view toward learning about the ecological aspects of man and his environment. The Grand School Districts program of environmental education is one of the more advanced programs in Utah. Credit for this, according to School District Superintendent C. Robert Sundwall,lsduetothe districts Environmental Education Advisory Committee. The committee is composed of school personnel, representatives of the National Parks Service, Forest Service, Soil Conservation Service, Bureau of Land Management, and others of the community having an interest in ecology. Committee members have not only given guidance, but have actually helped in establishing the program and supplying materials and exhibits, said Superintendent Sundwall. About 50 miles to the south, tlie San Juan School District is opening its first school for ecology education. The dis- tricts Blue Mountain Environmental School is being sponsored through an $8,000 grant Rers from tlie gional Commission and is designed to acquaint high school students from all over the UJS. with the ecology, geology, and anthropology of the Four-Corne- Four-Corn- News Notes 4-- H H The Adventurers club met Wednesday, June 16 at the home of Betty Crittenden.

Children are being bussed to the sites and given first hand experience to see their back door environment from a view they had never seen before. Granite and Iron School Districts have areas in canyons, dose to their schools, that are set aside for environmental education purposes. Jordan, P.!ch, Ogden and Tooele Districts also have environmental education programs. Finding teachers knowledgeable about their environment and able to handle these kinds of programs has posed some interesting situations. Granite District recently bussed more than 50 of its teachers to Moab to get an look at Louise Hetzels outdoor classroom. In addition, under the direction of the office of the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, since 1966 a yearly teacher training workshop in environmental education in Ephraim Canyon in central Utah. Here teachers learn effective methods df teaching in the outdoors. They also come to grips with some of the other problems which may face an environmental education teacher; not the least of which may be learning to hold a live snake or lizard some youngster has Just brought into the classroom. Louise Hetzel attended one of tlie workshops at Ephraim Canyon. Her experiences there led to the kinds of learning activities she now provides for her 2nd graders. Many times during the school day she fields questions about trees, grass lizards, squirrels catcus, and clouds. Shis tells the children theyre all interacting parts of our environment. juGt as much as ants and ant hills. Mrs. Hetzel knows that these youngsters will have to be about natures creatures and its delicate balance, if they are going to make knowledgeable sound decisions in the future.
