This free Year 1 topic is all about exploring nature and the great outdoors through hands-on activities. Children go on simple nature hunts, paint the weather and play outside to notice changes in the world around them.
The activities are aligned with the National Curriculum for England and touch on Art, Geography, Maths and Science. They are ideal for home educators and teachers who want curriculum‑linked, low‑prep ideas for learning outdoors.
You can find more topics like this, including “Where I live”, “Plants around us” and “Five senses”, on the Hands-On Education website, along with videos and printable activity sheets to support your planning.
About Hands-On Education
Hands-On Education provides practical, open-ended activities for primary‑aged children, built around the National Curriculum for England. Each lesson includes clear guidance, suggested materials and flexible ideas so it can work for a single child at home or a full class in school. Our approach is “learning by doing”, with plenty of opportunities to explore outside, use simple resources and enjoy reading linked books together.
