After the first scientific and methodological part, the book proposes rich and practical reflections, tools, educational programmes and teaching methodologies to primary school teachers, and educators to “teach” through direct immersion in the urban and natural external environment.  It provides tools and ideas to increase teaching opportunities outside the classroom, to design structured and coherent activities which promote interdisciplinarity and the development of skills with recent regulations on environmental protection and sustainable development, taking advantage of the opportunities offered from the context to observe, discover and relate in a perspective of inclusiveness and collaboration.
