I’m always surprised when I hear the statistics about how little time kids spend outside. One study found children are spending less than half amount of time outdoors than they did just 20 years ago.

1.All that outside time then wasn’t just about health and exercise, though that was certainly true. Several studies also have linked outside time to higher test scores, lower anxiety and aggression, more creativity and improved attention spans. 2. Researchers look at three primary schools in South Wales that adopted an outdoor learning program with teachers working outside with students at least one hour a week and come to this conclusion.

3.Eliza Minnucci’s kindergarten class there engages in Forest Mondays, during which the students spend the whole day in the woods, rain or shine. It’s a more curriculum-based version of the Land, an outdoor playground in England, which allows kids to experiment, build dams and even build fires in the woods.

So what have the results been? Mostly positive. “Kids are so resourceful out here. Minnucci said. 4.We teach them discrete (互不关联的) skills and facts and they put them together later. That’s a good way to learn, but it’s not the way the world works,” she said. “ 5.In the place, they need to think about how to build a dam with others and at the same time think about staying dry and staying warm.

Considering all the good evidence that being outside is good great for mind and body — as well as test scores — it seems like this kind of education is a natural next step for teachers.

A.My own childhood was filled with outdoor time.

B.As an added bonus, it is also beneficial to teachers.

C.The idea is to let kids learn lessons from the natural world.

D.In the classroom, we separate everything into small pieces.

E.A public school in Queechee is taking these results seriously.

F.I like giving them the opportunity to be in a really complex place.

G.Playing outdoors involves plenty of learning, just not from a book.
