Nature is diverse learning environment for schools. Outdoor learning is experimental, experience-based, hands-on learning in authentic learning environments. Outdoor learning gives also healthy physical exercise. The joy of learning is created through a wide range of outdoor practices. Social skills are also strengthened outdoors. A good relationship with nature created in nature awareness - it is a first step toward sustainable way of life. Outdoor classroom is a healthy learning environment in which pupils learn the new curriculum multidisciplinary. Participating teachers would be offered many “outdoor learning” workshops, tools, materials and examples. Teachers would be encouraged to do “outdoor learning” with the class and increase physical activity at school by being outdoors. They can share the ideas with other teachers.
