Schools in Scotland are back, which means end of outdoor summer fun. But learning does not need to be limited to a classroom, something that many schools and teachers recognize. There are many benefits of outdoor learning like boosting confidence, physical skills, better knowledge and understanding of the world around us, and in particular appreciation of nature.
There are many online resources available, but two sources in particular are worth looking at.
NatureScot Activity Guides that provide outdoor educational resources for different ages and group types:
Education resources | Scottish Outdoor Access Code (outdooraccess-scotland.scot)
Centre for Ecology and Hydrology Resource for Schools – a Case Study of Loch Leven designed for N5 Biology and N5 Chemistry
