英文翻译 nature school

Nature is the greatest teacher in nursery schools of Scandinavia.1

All across Scandinavia small children are running wild! From Lapland to Jutland, you will see flocks of youngsters chasing through meadows and woodland, with mud-spattered faces and small rucksacks on their backs.2 You will find them splashing in streams, crawling through the undergrowth, clambering up trees or sitting quietly on a log eating a sandwich.3 These are children from one of the many "naturbornehaver" (nature kindergartens) that are currently mushrooming4 up all over Norway, Denmark, Sweden and Finland.

Yes, this is the pedagogical hit of our time5—the startlingly simple concept of taking children out in nature as often as possible, for as long as possible, in all weathers and in all seasons. And research shows that these "nature" children gain far more than rosy cheeks and bright eyes; for it is now evident that nature nursery school children are socially, physically and intellectually at an advantage over their contemporaries in conventional nursery schools. No wonder then, that the rate of growth in this area of childcare is phenomenal6. In Denmark, nearly all county councils now have one or two such schools.

Although there are many variations on the theme, nature nursery schools are most often based in a forest. A forest gives the perfect frame for a child’s natural physical development. When a child experiences the freedom and stimulation offered by the forest, the result is a more balanced and peaceful child who is able to deal with social and intellectual challenges far more effectively.

The forest offers a multitude of learning opportunities. Children can run around as much as they want; noise is absorbed by the immensity7 of the sky. Children can use their bodies to the full; climbing, swinging, crawling, carrying, leaping. What’s more, the forest is filled with an abundance of playthings: a stick transforms into a horse or into a baton to conduct a brass band.8 Imagination can literally run wild through the trees.

For these children, the world is teeming with life: slugs and beetles, wild raspberries and hazelnuts, woodpeckers and jays.9 What better way could there be to learn about animals, plants and the changing of the seasons? What more effective way to teach children about basic ecological concerns, when they arise so spontaneously and in such a genuine context?10

Most often, such nursery schools are "green". They buy organic and environmentally-friendly products, and work with the concept of environmental sustainability, e.g. composting11 and energy-saving. In giving children a chance to establish a meaningful, intimate and responsible relationship with the natural world, it must be a regular daily practice for them to touch the earth, to hear birdsong, to collect berries and mushrooms and get to know animals and plants. In wind, rain, snow and shine, let the children run wild!

整个斯堪的纳维亚小孩子十分猖獗！从拉普兰到日德兰，您会看到成群的年轻人追逐通过草地和林地，与泥溅脸和小背囊他们backs.2你会发现他们溅流，爬行通过下层，爬上了树，或静坐于日志吃sandwich.3这些儿童从其中一个“ naturbornehaver ” （性质幼儿园）目前mushrooming4所有的挪威，丹麦，瑞典和芬兰。
