Nature-Based Learning for Primary Teachers is a practical guide that integrates outdoor learning and nature-based pedagogies into the mainstream curriculum.
This book provides a framework for applying the Outdoor Curriculum approach, which uses the natural environment as a primary context for teaching core subjects such as English, mathematics, science and foundation subjects. Grounded in nature-related pedagogies, place-based education and experiential learning, this book offers useful strategies, real-world examples and lesson plans for teachers to easily adopt outdoor learning. By using the outdoors, it helps primary teachers navigate the balance between curriculum requirements and the benefits of connecting students to nature. Additionally, the book addresses common challenges such as space, time constraints and bad weather, offering real solutions that will empower teachers to confidently take learning outdoors.
This engaging book shows primary teachers how to create hands-on learning experiences that meet curriculum requirements and foster creativity, critical thinking and environmental stewardship.
