Birds chirping, warm breezes blowing. These are the kinds of days when you just need to be outside. Here are some of my favorite outdoor activities to incorporate into summer speech. 1. Have a Picnic Getting out for a picnic is a fun change of pace for space. You can also use a picnic to span multiple sessions depending on your goals. You can plan for your picnic by categorizing the items you will want and need. Have students follow directions to pack up for the picnic. One of my favorites is to describe the tasty foods!
