Teaching the Primary Curriculum Outdoors

Through real life understanding of teaching and step by step guidance, Learning through Landscapes shows you that every curriculum subject in primary schools can be taught outdoors. It also shows you that learning outdoors improves health, wellbeing and attainment and brings joy to your teaching.

** Research evidence consistently shows that an outdoor learning environment can improve behaviour, engagement and encourage more active participation in learning. So why keep learning in a classroom?**

In reality, we know the challenges teachers face. We know the barriers that get in the way of taking learning outside. Learning through Landscapes has three decades of experience supporting teachers with the everyday challenges of teaching outdoors. Through this real life understanding of teaching and step by step guidance, this book shows you that every curriculum subject in primary schools can be taught outdoors.

Through the pages of this book, Learning through Landscapes shows you that learning outdoors not only improves the health, wellbeing and attainment of the children in your class - it also brings joy to your teaching.
