For all of you who have been wondering why the curriculum got it's name - here you go 😁
However, I believe that you can still follow the Forest School Principles as much or as little as you wnat while using this curriculum,as you can still add things, move them around or abandon them completely if the mood strikes.
What the curriculum does do is provide a bit of a baseline that you can use to structure your sessions, saving you time and brainspace.
So,no matter how 'Forest School' your sessions are right now, if having a theme and a plan for your sessions for Autumn term sounds good, comment CURRICULUM and I'll send you the link.

Is this you right now? Balancing the roles of teacher and Forest School Leader often felt like I was doing such different things, but also trying to see whether I could apply some of my knowledge to classroom teaching (it wasn't that easy, so if anyone had been successful I'd love to know!)
One of the hard things was trying to plan great Forest School sessions while also teaching, planning and assessing the rest of the week.
I would have loved a planning guide I could follow, with activity ideas, themes, story suggestions and reflections I could pick up and use.
If that's you now, I have the solution. The Autumn term 'Not Quite Forest School' Curriculum is out! Comment CURRICULUM and I'll send you the details.

I'm blown away by the lovely comments I've had for my 'Not Quite Forest School' Curriculum.
I created it because I used and still use a similar format when planning my own sessions, and I would have loved something that would have saved me all those hours scrolling through Pinterest for inspiration.
Story recommendations I've actually checked are relevant, games that you might want to join in with too, activities that don't take loads of prep and resources and reflections that you can pick up and go (mostly!)
If that sounds like just what you need, comment CURRICULUM and I'll send you the link.
Oh, and if you give me a FOLLOW you will see me again 😊
This activity supports nature connection and helps children and adults tune in to their surroundings and what's going on around them.
MOSS means 'Moment Of Special Silence' and some people like to shout 'MOSS!' before they go silent for a minute or so.
