Science beyond the Classroom Boundaries
Feasey, Rosemary; Bianchi, Lynne
Primary Science, n119 p14-16 Sep 2011
There have been many years of innovation in primary science education. Surprisingly, however, most of this has taken place within the confines of the classroom. What primary science has not yet done with universal success is step outside the classroom boundaries to use the school grounds for teaching and learning across all aspects of the science curriculum. In this article, the authors share some of the ways in which teachers around the country are taking science learning outdoors. (Contains 2 figures.)
