Lesson 5- Zoom In, Zoom Out

In this lesson, students intentionally record observations at close, medium, and long range. In the process, they will make varied observations about the subject. They will discover that observing an object at different perspectives broadens that observation. This video presents a model and instructions for the lesson. But the actual activity should be done outdoors in order for students to make the long-range observation. Students return to the video after completing the journal page, to answer reflection questions, and put them into a meaningful paragraph.

The Conservancy was created as an independent nonprofit organization by the Tejon Ranch Conservation and Land Use Agreement, signed on June 17, 2008, by the Tejon Ranch Company, Audubon California, the Endangered Habitats League, Natural Resources Defense Council, Planning and Conservation League, and Sierra Club.
