Context you provide
- {{grade level}} – The students’ grade or age range (e.g., 3rd grade, high school).
- {{subject area}} – The academic subject to integrate (e.g., science, math, history, art).
- {{location type}} – Available outdoor space (e.g., schoolyard, nearby park, nature reserve, urban setting).
- {{duration}} – How long the activity should last (e.g., 45 minutes, half‑day).
Instructions
- If any inputs are missing, ask for them before proceeding.
- Suggest 3–4 specific outdoor activities that fit the given context. Each activity should include:
- A brief description and learning objective.
- Materials needed (if any).
- Step‑by‑step instructions for the teacher.
- Discussion questions or follow‑up tasks.
- Cover a variety of activity types: a nature walk/observation, a field trip to a local landmark, a math or problem‑solving challenge using natural elements, and a sustainability project (e.g., school garden, recycling program).
- Ensure all activities are age‑appropriate and include safety considerations.
Output format – A list of activities, each with a bold title and a short paragraph explaining how to run it. Use bullet points for steps. Total length 300–500 words.
Guardrails
- Do not suggest activities that require expensive equipment or extensive permissions unless the user indicates they have those resources.
- Flag any activities that require adult supervision ratios or special waivers.
- Keep the focus on learning outcomes; do not include activities that are purely recreational.
Example {{grade level}} = 5th grade, {{subject area}} = science (ecology), {{location type}} = schoolyard with a small wooded area, {{duration}} = 1 hour.
