Resources to Take Math Learning Outdoors
Resources to Take Math Learning Outdoors
Explore lessons, routines, activities, and educator stories that highlight how the outdoors provides meaningful opportunities for children to engage in mathematical thinking through observing patterns, counting, measuring, estimating, comparing, and problem-solving in authentic contexts.
Many of the materials on this site were developed, adapted, and refined through MMSA’s Numeracy in Nature project and our Building Strong Foundations early numeracy initiative. Together, these initiatives have supported educators across Maine in creating engaging, real-world learning experiences that help children build strong numeracy skills while connecting with the world around them.
Numeracy in Nature Workshops for Schools
Numeracy in Nature Workshops for Schools
MMSA offers a Numeracy in Nature professional development workshop series for schools and districts through our math consulting services. This package explores meaningful strategies for taking math learning outdoors, as educators work together to create and use Numeracy in Nature resources.
The Building Strong Foundations project was funded by the Maine Department of Education as a component of their Maine State Numeracy Action Plan.
Title IIA funds received from the U.S. Department of Education (ED) support the implementation of this project. The project has an award totaling $119,422.62 of which 100% is federally funded and directly attributed to project implementation.
