You may have seen my book, “Outdoor Science, A Practical Guide” from NSTA Press. You should take a look at the book on the NSTA website, and the review at NSTA Recommends. Let me know if you have questions. I would love to see it on your resource list.
Thank you so much.
I would recommend adding:
Schoolyard-Enhanced learning: Using the Outdoors as an Instructional Tool to the list of “Schoolyard Related Publications”.
I know I’m a bit biased, but I truly think that the book could be helpful to outdoor planners of outdoor learning!!
