Outdoor Learning Cards T


he Outdoor Learning Cards are a nationally recognised resource that introduce a range of exciting outdoor learning activities designed for


use with children and young people. The cards promote high-quality outdoor learning and contribute directly to a wide range of educational and development aims for young people. By using these cards, leaders can support learning across the


curriculum and promote a physically active and healthy lifestyle, which will develop in young people positive attitudes towards self, others and their environment. Following on from the success of the Outdoor Learning Cards, the


Environmental Learning Cards introduce young people to experiencing, understanding, enjoying and sustaining the outdoor environment. These cards offer a range of activities that are of great value in


themselves, but also provide the opportunity to support and add value to on-going programmes of learning. Ideal for use in schools, outdoor centres and with groups of all kinds whenever there is interaction with


the environment in an outdoor learning context. Each of these valuable resources take young people beyond the


classroom and the experiences they gain outdoors help them to make sense of the world around them. The Outdoor Learning Cards and Environmental Learning Cards are


developed by the Outdoor Education Advisers Panel (OEAP) in partnership with HARVEY Maps to provide ideas for teachers and instructors wishing to use the outdoors as a medium for learning. Full sets of Outdoor Learning Cards and Environmental Learning


Cards, as well as six FREE sample Learning Cards available to download and print, are available from HARVEY Maps.
