Trapper teacher, why not!: When nature re-enchants the school

After a summer spent on the banks of the Varenne River in the company of trout and salmon, Philippe Nicolas realized to what extent the breaking of our ties with nature represented a real threat to humanity. From there, this school teacher undertook to deploy his discoveries and draw applications for his classroom management at the foot of large urban complexes.

This trapper teacher, as he defines himself as such, invites us to re-enchant school through a global education of the five senses. He advocates a school of the elements open to the world and connected to nature so that the child who has become an adult feels in charge of life and open to its possibilities.

In the era of global warming, the author offers us nothing more and nothing less than to agree to live soberly and in harmony with the Living. A sort of logbook, here is a profound and integral manifesto served by a passionate, poetic and philosophical writing and illustrated with numerous photos of class outings.
