As I have written before we believe that the environment is the third
teacher. When we think about the environment we usually think of indoor spaces but we should have the same level of intentionality when
creating spaces for children of all ages to explore, research and play while outdoors.
As you all know I love pinterest! I have a board for all of my
inspirations for outdoor spaces at Austin Green School and I am happy to
share with you some of them today!
