Outdoor Learning And Maths Cornish College Primary teachers alexandra parrington and samantha millar publish their third article for ‘prime number,’ the primary journal of the mathematical association of victoria. " this outdoor data collection and graphing activity enabled us to cover a number of mathematical concepts. At cornish college we are blessed to have a school property that is 100 acres of natural bushland, wetlands, farmland, groomed gardens and playing fields. however, you definitely do not need such an environment to teach maths outside.
Outdoor Learning And Maths Published Cornish College Their second article to appear in prime number, alexandra and samantha provide further insight into how learning outdoors can take on a shape much more significant than anyone could plan. “there are so many opportunities to teach maths in nature in a hands on, authentic way.” read more below. “at cornish college, we believe that being out in nature is important for the health and well being of everyone, especially children. further, we believe that learning with and in nature provides authentic inquiry and teaching opportunities across the curriculum and across all year levels.
