The Importance of Bringing Nature Into the Classroom

This week's guest, Dr Alex Barrable, discusses why connecting with nature is so important and how we can encourage young people to connect with nature inside the classroom, outside the classroom, on trips and even in an urban environment.  She is really keen to hear from teachers about the ways they encourage their students to connect with nature and the challenges they face, so please do get in touch with her here.  If you would like to find out more about the Outward Bound Trust she talks about you can visit their website.
