If you hover your mouse over the programs tab on the top menu, you will see a new page: Activity Write-Ups and Outdoor Info. I’ve written a number of articles in the past few years about teaching and leading groups outdoors. There are resources, activities and teaching suggestions & ideas for parents, teachers and group leaders.
New articles will be added as they’re written. If you’re someone who leads outdoor programs or events – even once in a while – and you’d like information on a particular topic, make a note in the comments below. I’m happy to take requests.

A shout-out to Courtney and her class who visited our site yesterday, and took the time to say hello by email and share a resource link (which will be added to the resources page for future reference): http://www.commercialofficecleaning.com/clean-up-earth.html. It’s a website for Janitorial Cleaning Services out of New York City. I’m so glad they shared this because it’s exciting to see a really well-written resource for a larger audience. Meaning larger than the folks environmental educators would usually reach: kids, families and teachers who are already environmentally-minded.
Much of the work the New England Environmental Education Alliance (NEEEA) is doing right now revolves around how to expand our field and audience reach. I serve as the President of NEEEA, so this is on my mind constantly. I’m always glad to see examples from other industries that reflect our goals – the website from Janitorial Cleaning Services makes me super happy. Thanks visiting and passing this along Courtney’s class!
This is well organized
Thank you! I realized that I needed to find a way to bring some of my more educational articles to light – things have a way of getting buried on blogs after a while!
