Description

Probationers from across the city took part in their first Face to Face training of the year. It was game of 2 halves with the first cohort having glorious sunshine and the second having torrential rain! We love Scotland! Regardless of the weather there were lots of inspirational and fun activities created by the 2022 probationer cohort. Groups of 4/5 worked together to create a short lesson from a variety of random objects. They then took it in turns to teach each other and discuss what makes an effective lesson outdoors. Many teams adapted their activity in a variety of ways showing the open ended, child-led nature of learning outdoors to support learners needs.

The structure of this training could also be adapted for classes where they are given a variety of random objects and asked to create game/ challenge/ model which they then present to other groups.


Games played:
Group Juggle
Cat Mouse
Sticky Feet
Bat Moth
