For many educators working with elementary students, it is easy to simplify scientific concepts, but they must always remember that the inherent natural curiosity aroused when their senses interact with the landscape creates the opportunity for the development of interdisciplinary, integrated, higher thinking skills. The authors--one a storyteller and the other a scientist--structured a workshop to offer the participants choices among many simple story titles and questions, which, like a mature tree, offer a myriad of branches and roots, pathways that can be taken in order to illustrate the connection between science and the wonder they observe in their daily lives. This article presents some examples and briefly-outlined concepts that the authors offered. They present just enough to spark a bit more inquiry so that educators can hopefully provide explanations and tell stories at levels that are appropriate for their students.
