Student's art decorates the piano. 


The students incorporated the lyrics from the songs and their experience of learning and singing the songs into their artwork.


One of the songs they sang was about an ancient old growth fir tree, "Mr. Douglas". 


Learning the songs from the Voices of Nature program help the children understand what it means to be part of an ecology of life systems: watersheds, trees, and the Salish Sea.


The lessons from the songs and singing together provide rich opportunities for the teachers to connect student's learning to their local habitats and climate.
