Overview
Recognising underused urban outdoor areas, teachers in Haringey developed the trails that integrate local environments into primary science education. These customisable trails support outdoor learning with clear objectives, necessary resources and equipment, and health and safety guidelines.
The Primary Science Teaching Trust (PSTT) book offers invaluable CPD resources to promote outdoor learning from EYFS to KS2. It includes a curriculum grid, scientific glossary, and cross-curricular links. Topics covered are animals, biodiversity, habitats, electricity, energy, forces, light, plants, materials, rocks, fossils, soils, seasonal change, sound, and states of matter. Outdoor learning stimulates curiosity, encourages exploration, and connects scientific concepts to real life, benefiting children's physical and mental well-being.
Using the outdoor area as a teaching tool enhances a child's learning experience, making real-world connections to scientific concepts.
