This outdoor learning resource for teachers and parents is one of a series of 10 ebooks entitled “Teach on the Beach”. Each book in the series focuses on a different curriculum area such as Maths, Science (2 parts), Literacy, Geography, History, Physical Education, and Art. In addition, “Teach Survival on the Beach” has a range of cross-curricular themed activities (based on a storyline of being “stranded on a desert island”). “Teach on the Beach - introduction and samples” is recommended for everyone as it provides vital background information to the series. Each one is an illustrated, practical handbook which provides teachers with a wealth of inspirational ideas and engaging activities for students of all ages. The activities are all based on the beach, but many of them can be easily adapted to other outdoor environments – including the school grounds. The activities are equally relevant and applicable to all countries and curricula. The books aim to show how learning outside the classroom can truly enrich, extend, and enhance the curriculum, and can help students to see how classroom learning is applicable to real life. The books also aim to help teachers and students to develop a deeper understanding, love, and respect for the natural world and to inspire within us all a childlike sense of wonder and curiosity. Most of the activities promote the development of teamwork and problem-solving skills, and the extra space available outdoors encourages lots of valuable physical exercise. The author, Taff Bowles, has taught in schools and outdoor education centres since 1980, and from 2003 to 2019 he was the Educational Visits and Outdoor Learning Adviser for the UK’s East Riding of Yorkshire Council within their School Improvement team. He has trained many hundreds of teachers to teach more competently and confidently outdoors, and to use their school grounds and local area more effectively for learning.
