Approaches to outdoor and<br />
adventure activities<br />
When planning to teach an outdoor<br />
and adventure activities programme it<br />
is recommended that the teacher plan<br />
in advance how the strand units can be<br />
delivered. Some lessons may focus on<br />
one strand unit, other lessons may<br />
outline the content of a number of<br />
strand units.<br />
In addition to the considerations<br />
outlined on pp. 34–9 the following<br />
guide will aid the planning process for<br />
outdoor and adventure activities. The<br />
teacher should consider<br />
• warm-up and cool-down activities<br />
appropriate to the particular lessons<br />
• inviting support from additional<br />
personnel to help with group work<br />
or any activity that involves<br />
travelling from the school site<br />
• visiting an outdoor activities centre<br />
which provides opportunities for<br />
orienteering, adventure challenges<br />
or water-based activities<br />
• planning for aspects of a number of<br />
strand units to be delivered in each<br />
lesson or emphasising a particular<br />
strand unit for some lessons.<br />
Exemplar 17 outlines a series of five<br />
lessons for first or second class. It<br />
incorporates content from the four<br />
strand units of the curriculum for this<br />
level. Lessons 1–3 outline three<br />
activities to be undertaken—one<br />
activity is undertaken by each group<br />
in each of the lessons.<br />
