Remote learning: outdoor adventure activities and problem solving

Downloads can take a few minutes, especially for larger files or slower connections.

Why this why now

Pupils will already have developed basic skills to operate within and as a team, but this unit challenges pupils to apply them in unique scenarios that require problem solving and creative thinking. Later in outdoor adventurous activities, pupils will get the opportunity to engage in activities beyond the school walls which will further develop their teamwork and leadership skills.

Prior knowledge requirements

  • Pupils know hope to solve problems by drawing on creative thinking and logic.
  • Pupils understand that critical reflection improves future performance.
  • Pupils are able to recognise key features on a map.
  • Pupils show patience and resilience when faced with a challenging task.
