Outdoor Learning Environments: Easing the Transition from the Foundation Stage to Key Stage One
Fabian, Hilary
Education 3-13, v33 n2 p4-8 Jun 2005
This article focuses on the transition that children make from the outdoor area in the Foundation Stage to the school playground in Key Stage One. With the recent emphasis on outdoor learning in the Foundation Stage it looks at the way in which one school has attempted to overcome discontinuity in learning between key stages by making learning out-of-doors part of the everyday curriculum throughout the school.
