Outdoor Literacy
Literacy activities, such as reading and writing, are often thought of as indoor activities. Do you incorporate literacy in your outdoor environments? How so?
If not, how might you incorporate literacy into outdoor play in the future?
Pictured is a "little library" that was added to an outdoor play space where I worked. We were very fortunate to have a family at the centre build and donate this.
We have a book bin that we take outside with us. We have books that are interest related and we will switch them every so often. Literacy is very important in all aspects of play.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome! Do you have a special place that you and the children like to read outside, or does it happen anywhere in the outdoor space?
