Show Notes

If you’ve decided to take your students outside for learning but you’re not sure where to start lesson planning, this is the episode for you! There are a variety of children’s outdoor activities and games to enhance your science studies, and I cover 9 of them in this episode.

Tune in for descriptions and examples of:

  • Group meetings or whole group meetings
  • Guided hikes or walks
  • Trail or sidewalk activities
  • Exploration
  • Data collection
  • Observational studies
  • Running games
  • Role playing games
  • Concept reinforcement games

Make sure to stick around until the end of the show where I give you ideas of how to get your hands on study skins, or taxidermied animals, to bring your students’ learning to life!
