There are many reasons to consider implementing an outdoor classroom space at your school or organization, but figuring out where to start can be daunting. We know that learning outdoors has multiple mental and physical health benefits, and current science indicates that the rates of transmission of COVID-19 are lower outside, and the Utah Society for Environmental Education is here to help you take advantage of outdoor spaces to ensure that learning is safer, more equitable, and, of course, more fun! 

Join speakers Hilary Lambert and Sarah Knee for an introduction to the basics of outdoor classrooms including: 

• Defining an outdoor classroom and how this concept can work for any school
• Conducting an inventory of your school's outdoor spaces and determining which of these can best be utilized for instruction outdoors - for any subject!
• Tips and tricks for outdoor classroom management, including modifications for social distancing
• Resources & ideas for bringing your outdoor classroom to life
