During outdoor time, place an object, such as a clipboard, somewhere on the playground and tell the children you can't find it and you need their help. Tell the children, “Whenever I can't find something, I need to retrace my steps. Help me remember, what did we do first when we came outside?” I got the balls from the storage container but my clipboard is not there. What did we do next?” Continue until you “find” your clipboard.
