- Book Synopsis
- A Creative Approach to Teaching Science Outdoors is filled with exciting and innovative ways to teach physics, chemistry and biology throughout primary - all in the great outdoors! This book is jam-packed full of activities and ready-made ideas with a creative edge, like using 'racing leaves' to teach about the physics ofmovement and making natural dyes to 'paint with nature' to learn about the pH scale. The lesson plans are linked to all UK science curricula and aimed at encouraging children to think critically and scientifically. Tried and tested by expert authors, every activity uses materials which can easily be found outside or around the home and is adaptable for every setting - no matter how much or little green space you have! Teaching outdoors has proven benefits for mental health and wellbeing, and creates natural links to talking about the environment and climate change in a fun and accessible way. This book is a must-have for teachers looking to inspire their pupils and show children that science is truly everywhere!
