Muddy Education

At Muddy Education we believe that many subjects can be taught through the natural world. Science, maths, literacy, geography and art and design, are built into our activities making a visit to our woods a really valuable cross-curricular experience for key stage 1 children. A memorable visit also makes for great writing for KS1 SATS!

Observing changes within the natural world is an important part of understanding nature. Regular visits to the woodland and surrounding habitats give children a real understanding of concepts such as weather and climate, animal habitats and life cycles, plant life cycles and food chains to name but a few. A programme of regular visits, either in consecutive weeks spanning two seasons or at intervals throughout the year, provide an important opportunity for children to consolidate their learning.
