Two great ‘bites’ of news in this e-mail
- Even easier access
- ‘New’ way to learn
‘New’ way to learn
Well probably not ‘new’, since most things in education seem to go in circles but we do think it is a new way to teach some of the topics covered by the discovering-our-countryside website
While we appreciate that you teach much of the material we cover in the spring and summer term, I actually learnt much of this growing up on a farm seeing it everyday. So why not watch our programs as small bites of learning – the whole program is only 10-15 mins long, or you could watch each section separately and cover the topics listed below gradually so that when you come to do them in your long term plan your class already has some knowledge on which to build.
Learning will be just like growing up with the farm yard and countryside in your classroom
