7th Grade Class - Nature Class - Feb. 5, 2014

Clover - good for protein - eating it with oil or fat so body can absorb protein and good for digestion 

Shepherds purse 

Toe and heel walking like ancestors did. Feeling ground. Each step is feeling before committing ur weight. A relationship between u and the earth. Silently walking. Like a fox - steps are very precise and do it without looking. Keep ur head up and let ur feet have eyes. 

Fox tracks are in a straight line. 

Yellow Dock - good green and for salads and medicinal. 
Bitter part is the root - to raise blood  iron levels

Make rope from milkweed 

Killing Trap - logs - die instantly don't want animals to suffer. Breaks their back. 

Living from the land. Need to eat animals. Look at the energy he is consuming. If he digs a root he knows it has energy on it. Kill animal and take energy from animal. Part of being human is that u will kill things in life. Everything has energy plants or animals. 

in Trap - 1 week to expect to catch a deer, coyote and fox 

Sound like a deer while walking when there are lots of dry leaves. Broken up walking.... Wind can blow against u and deer can smell u. 

Game - mountain lion and deer 
Deer are herd animals. Using each other's senses to be safe. If one spooks all will spook.
