Description

Connecting with nature offers a promising way forward for today's learners, especially those living in urban surroundings. This book brings together evidence from psychology, environmental science and education to support teachers in providing meaningful experiences rooted in learning about and through nature.

Featuring practical advice, case studies and discussion of original theory, the book aims to inspire educators to engage with alternative approaches to teaching in the outdoors and with nature in mind. It shares examples of good practice from a variety of settings, detailing the physical and psychological benefits of being outdoors and suggesting ways to help build young people's connection with nature.

Suitable for teachers and outdoor-learning leaders in early years through to secondary schools, this book offers ideas on how to weave nature and the outdoors into the very fabric of the curriculum. It is one of a number of books in the Independent Thinking On series from Crown House Publishing.
