Turn Back Time (TBT) is a nature and play based learning school in Paxton Massachusetts that uses non-traditional classrooms to teach important educational and social subjects to their students. While many classes are conducted outside of a traditional classroom, there is still a need for a space by their beaver pond to store educational materials and to provide better opportunities for nature-based learning and engagement. The purpose of our project was to design and build a learning space and interactive stations that incorporate the natural features and educational opportunities provided by the beaver pond.
