Education is the process of facilitating learning, or the
acquisition of knowledge, skills, values, beliefs, and
habits. Educational methods include storytelling, discussion,
teaching, training, and directed research. But education does
not only focus on classroom activities and academic. It does
not concentrate on just reading and writing but also in
extracurricular activities such as sports and scouting.
Scouting or the Scout Movement is a movement that
aims to support young people in their physical, mental and
spiritual development, that they may play constructive roles in
society, with a strong focus on the outdoors and survival skills.
A Scout learns the cornerstones of the Scout method, Scout
Promise, and Scout Law. These are designed to instill
Description/ character, citizenship, personal fitness, and leadership in boys
Rationale through a structured program of outdoor activities. Common
ways to implement the Scout method include spending time
together in small groups with shared experiences, rituals, and
activities, as well as emphasizing good citizenship and
decision-making that is age-level appropriate. Cultivating a
love and appreciation of the outdoors and outdoor activities
are key elements. Primary activities, mostly on outdoor
include camping, woodcraft, first
aid, aquatics, hiking, backpacking, and sports. Thus scouting is
learning by doing, developing character through hands-on
activity.

network of non-formal and informal learning. Scouting is a
non-formal educational strategy that can positively influence
the academic performance of children and adolescents. non-

making an event a successful one. Time plays a vital role and
setting a timeline will guide the implementers to achieve their
objectives and goals. Considering the level of scouts in terms of
their ages and differences. Troop Leaders and facilitators
should consider some activities that will suit the needs of the
learners specifically scouts from the lower grades department
these are the TWINKLERS, KID SCOUTS, STAR SCOUTS and
KAB SCOUTS. They should be given activities that they will be
motivated well to participate by engaging themselves with
their parents and guardians right after the investiture proper.
During the backyard encampment, scouts should be properly
oriented on how the campfire is to be done after the rituals,
and they should also be taught some round songs while the
campfire is on going to make this activity more lively.
