GRADE LEVEL
Gear up and get ready to spend time in the great outdoors! This course will encourage you to have your “Littles” frolicking and finding out how the outdoor world works as they spend time soaking up Vitamin N (nature). See how spending time with trees, streams, plants, sunshine, and snow improves students’ mental health, well-being, and happiness. Unearth books and dig into resources that champion and support outdoor learning for both teachers and students. Even explore how you can challenge the status quo by studying how technology can enhance outdoor learning, and listen to some of the best outdoor education podcasts. Watch how students blossom into outdoor leaders as you design lessons and activities that take-and-make the best of nature-based learning.
