    What happens when we take our learning outside?  Do you know what outdoor is and how it benefits the development of language?

    Kirsten moved here last year from Scotland where outdoor learning is an entitlement of all learners.  She will share some ways of how taking EAL learners outside can provide targeted support.

    Kirsten will share ready made resources that can be used with all learners in the classroom.
