“Some old-fashioned things like fresh air and sunshine are hard to beat” (Laura Ingalls Wilder). When experiencing internet issues while learning, and we have a beautiful day, our teachers take learning outside! Some of our students had such a great time with their science lesson being delivered outside that they asked their teacher to take lunch back to their favorite spot. Of course they did and she joined them!
