Outdoor Classrooms Training and Development Programs

“Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.”  Ben Franklin

Outdoor Classrooms inspires early childhood teachers, out-of-school-time educators; along with, parents and families to create one-of-a-kind Outdoor Classrooms and/or Backyard Teaching Gardens. All on a shoe-string budget. One way we do this is through workshops and training.

All workshops and training are led by Victoria Hackett, M.Ed.  Whether your workshop is online or onsite, Victoria blends theory with hands-on problem-solving techniques, true-to-life anecdotes, valuable tips, and lively participation. Her extensive experience as a consultant/trainer/mentor and her background as a Natural Teacher allow her to bring profound knowledge and a pragmatic approach to every workshop she teaches.

The WORKSHOP BUNDLES ARE HERE! Since so many of you have been enjoying the 1-hour workshops and have inquired about purchasing them in bulk, I’m happy to announce that they are here! Did you miss a few of the workshops? Or, are you looking to hunker down on a rainy day and binge-watch all of them? Now you can! Interested? Learn more HERE. 

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:

DISCOVER HABITATS AND CAMOUFLAGE:

1-hour workshop

Pre-recorded

What is a Habitat? A habitat can be defined as “an area or environment in which an organism or group of organisms lives and grows.” These can be big words for young children; however, when you unpack and start talking about habitats and camouflage with kids, their curiosity starts to grow.  Kids like to learn through play.

In this workshop we will:

• Learn how to talk about Wildlife Habitats to young children.
• Discover fun games and activities to play with kids that feature these concepts.
• Explore wildlife adaptations.
• Share ideas and resources.

COURSE FEATURES:

• Lifetime access
• A community of like-minded educators.
