About This Lesson
The movement to green school grounds and connect children with nature has taken an important leap forward in the state of California.
The 2015 Living Schoolyard Month Activity Guide was created in honor of the first Living Schoolyard Month. It was developed by Green Schoolyards America in collaboration with colleagues from 40+ organizations across California who contributed a wide range of ideas to help schools bring students outside and use their school grounds to their fullest.
As a contributor to this guide, the Academy encourages schools across California and beyond to take their students outside throughout the year to celebrate their grounds and use them for hands-on learning, place- based inquiry, recreation, environmental stewardship and community-building.
