Wild Learning

Practical Ideas to Bring Teaching Outdoors

About this book

Wild Learning answers a call in the educational community for practical, easy-to-implement activities that bring core curriculum out of the classroom and into the outdoors. Outdoor learning has risen in popularity in recent years, and it has tremendous benefits. Being outside is healthier, helps children form a strong connection to the natural world, supports a variety of learning styles, increases engagement and motivation, and improves mental health. This book gives teachers practical activities that they can immediately implement, and helps educators overcome common barriers to outdoor instruction. These activities can be done in common outdoor spaces that are accessible to teachers in all school settings, and they are adaptable to their current curriculum—not an extra thing to try to fit into their day.

  • Get ideas for fun outdoor activities that cover core subject matter already being taught
  • Take learning outside, taking advantage of commonly accessible areas, no matter the educational setting
  • Help students develop a healthy appreciation of the outdoors and support hands-on learning styles
  • Support students' physical and mental health without sacrificing learning time

This book is a much-needed resource for elementary and special education teachers, as well as those in alternative schools, forest schools, and homeschooling parents.
