Spring outdoor game

Students in teams look for signs of spring using a task list.

Steps

1. Hand out the list: snowdrop, catkins, a bud, an insect, a bird's nest, a puddle with tadpoles.
2. Within a set area, teams photograph or draw what they find.
3. Each find scores a point, rare ones score two.
4. Back in class, the teams present their photos.

Tip: Set the boundaries and the return time, and choose a timekeeper in each team.

Materials needed

• Clipboards (1 per team)
