In his book "Last Child Left in the Woods," Richard Louv coined the term "Nature Deficit Disorder," which he thinks of as "... not a formal diagnosis, but a way to describe the psychological, physical and cognitive costs of human alienation from nature, particularly for children in their vulnerable developing years."(Louv, 2008) In the years that followed the publication of Louv's first book, schools began to think more deeply about how to give children authentic outdoor learning experiences. In 2010, our 3rd through 5th grade school, Cottage Lane Elementary in Blauvelt, New York, began an outdoor education event where we take our entire school to a local state park for a day. Once there, each class rotates from learning center to learning center to work with scientists, outdoor educators, local environmental groups and other volunteers to learn more about and experience the environment around them. What follows is a brief summary of what we have learned in the 10 years that we have been doing this work. We hope that it may serve as a model which other schools could replicate in their own way.
