We need to build outdoor classroom time into our daily activity schedule.  When it comes to the outdoor environment, I like to include everything that you could find in the indoor classroom, just bigger and louder ways to experience and explore and learn with.  As the teacher we can… Look at the outdoor environment as an extension to our indoor classroom.
