Growing with Nature : Supporting Whole-Child Learning in Outdoor Classrooms

By Nancy Rosenow, Dimensions Educational Research Foundation, Christine Kiewra, et al.

Engaging stories and photographs illustrate ways to enhance children's healthy development in all areas by engaging with the natural world. Ideas for supporting learning in multiple domains (language and literacy, science, social-emotional, mathematical, body competence, creative arts and visual-spatial skills) are presented for three age-groups: infants and toddlers, preschoolers and elementary students. Be inspired by real-life stories and suggestions from educators around the nation who are helping children enjoy learning with nature as a part of their daily lives.
