Nature journaling

Use this primary art activity to introduce nature journaling as a way to slow down, explore and connect more with the nature in your school grounds. This outdoor lesson idea will encourage curiosity while also developing literacy and creative skills.

Collecting observations within a journal can support data handling lessons, encourage the use of different artistic techniques and lead to scientific investigations around your setting. You could also bring your journal to life by using media and technology or simply enjoy a mindful moment in nature.
