NEIGHBORHOOD WALK
Exploring a neighborhood with the eyes of a planner can be fun. Learn to look, listen, touch, and smell to your environment. Where are the people? What are they doing? What are the buildings used for? Are the buildings old or new? Does anything look like it doesn't belong in the neighborhood? Where are the cars? What is interesting? What is surrounding the neighborhood?
Important: Adult supervision is required. Have your parent or teacher take you to the neighborhood study area. Do not go onto private property.
