Place Value of a 3 Digit Number

Place Value of a 3 Digit Number is a lesson plan that will help KS2 outdoor learning look easy! Simply get out of the classroom and into nature by doing this fun and active lesson.  Made by teachers for teachers this will make maths enjoyable and in context.  There is also lots of support to help you differentiation your outdoor learning and to dive in deeper and offer support where needed. 

Maths can be a good way to start your outdoor education and is often a starting point we suggest for those struggling with nature-based ideas. 

Alternatively, The Muddy Puddle Teacher Award is a great starting point for you, it will give you confidence, skills and a buzz about your role as we take you on a journey into a whole new pedagogy of learning.  Enrol here.
