FREE Nature Study Notebook Printables

“We are all meant to be naturalists, each in his own degree, and it is inexcusable to live in a world so full of the marvels of plant and animal life and to care for none of these things.” ~ Charlotte Mason

Nature Study is one of my favorite parts of homeshooling and of a Charlotte Mason style education. I love watching my children marvel at God’s creation when we are taking nature walks and learning about nature. If you are wanting to incorporate nature into your homeschool the easiest way to do this is by creating a nature study notebook or nature journal. I like notebooking pages because they go great in a portfolio to highlight what we have learned at the end of the year.

Our nature notebook starts with a nice, sturdy 3 ring binder. We store printed notebooking pages, any nature themed worksheets and nature copywork pages! I also like to keep little collectibles that my children have collected on nature walks and store them in page protectors with the top taped shut with clear packing tape. We also store a nature journal in one of the pockets of the binder to keep everything together.
