Description du cours

Join us for a fun adventure in nature! In this course, you’ll learn about parks, outdoor activities, and how we can help protect the environment. We’ll play nature games, and explore how spending time outdoors is good for our health. You’ll also discover why it’s important to take care of nature and how you can make a difference! To create a lively and active learning environment, I'd use visual aids like movies, podcasts, and documentaries. Materials Needed: Comfortable outdoor clothing !
