Why Teach Outdoors? Simplify - Simplify - Simplify Exercise: Talk & Teach while you Walk Weather: Rain or Shine, Sleet or Snow – event goes on Be Prepared: 10 Essentials *(6 for Cubs) Leave No Trace: Instill in our Children Biology/Zoology: Plant and Animal Identification Spirituality: Reverent in nature’s cathedral Nature will bear the closest inspection. She invites us to lay our eye level with her smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plain. -- Henry David Thoreau

Outdoor Code (Way Too Busy Slide) As an American I will “Do My Best” to… Be Clean in my Outdoor Manners I will treat the outdoors as a heritage. I will take care of it for myself and others. I will keep my trash and garbage out of lakes, streams, fields, woods, and roadways. Be Careful with Fire I will prevent wildfire. I will build my fires only where they are appropriate. When I have finished using a fire, I will make sure it is cold out. I will leave a clean fire ring, or remove all evidence of my fire. Be Considerate in the Outdoors I will treat public and private property with respect. I will use low-impact methods of hiking and camping. Be Conservation Minded I will learn how to practice good conservation of soil, waters, forests, minerals, grasslands, wildlife, and energy. I will urge others to do the same.

How Do Scouts Learn? READING - Book Learning (Didactic) HEARING – Telling them SEEING – Showing them DOING – Experiences (Hands On) SHOW – TELL – DO EDGE Technique

EDGE Technique Explain Demonstrate Guide Enable Explain what you will be doing. Breaking Down into steps. Visual aids are helpful. Ask questions to gauge understanding. Demonstrate Show how to do the skill. Demonstrate steps using actual materials. Describe what you are doing. Guide Let them practice the skill. Guide and coach them as they do it. This step will take the most time. Enable Enable by letting them do the skill themselves w/o any intervention.
