Montessori of Frankfort Visits the Morton Arboretum

The Montessori of Frankfort had an amazing field trip to the Morton Arboretum in Lisle. The children study botany for a month and this was a great extension to the children’s studies. The class had the opportunity to identify leaves, run through the bridges to tree houses, play with the water sources, and much more.
This is one of our favorite field trips!
