Winter tips and insights

from Earthy Chats Podcast Hosted by Outdoor Learning School & Store/CBEEN, and Stoked on Science

Jade is our resident chionophile (look it up), so she popped over to the other side of the mic for this episode about outdoor learning in places where winter is cold and snowy. There’s talk of winter mystery bags, using snowflakes as lessons prompts, connections to literacy, and the importance of movement. We also get into the nitty gritty of clothing and ways of ensuring that everyone has access to the right gear when temperatures drop below freezing. Also, how do chickadees’ brains change in the winter? Mentioned in episode: Dressing for the Weather diagram from Christina Pickles A Walking Curriculum Related resources: The Big Book of Nature Activities Sitting with Nature: An Educator’s Guide to Sit Spots Dirty Teaching: A Beginner’s Guide to Learning Outdoors
