Outdoor Learning Conference 2024

This workshop will support teacher leaders who are interested in facilitating professional learning around outdoor play and learning using the Teacher.Outsideplay.org tool. The framework for this tool was developed by experienced teachers across the province of British Columbia and exemplars of what outdoor play and learning looks like in elementary schools were submitted by teachers from across Canada. Participants will be introduced to 4 thematic components and 16 individual modules of the tool that will support facilitation of outdoor learning in elementary schools across Canada using a train the trainer model. The Teacher.Outsideplay.org tool for elementary school teachers is free to access and designed for collaborative dialogue with colleagues in support of teachers who would like to rethink where and how learning happens in our elementary schools.
