This post is an attempt to illustrate and show the things I value about teaching young children. Using pictures to provide inspiration and examples of the environments and approaches I would use.
The Third Teacher
(Reggio Emilia)

We went to the park.
It was a glorious day.
Water and rocks and sticks were all the kids needed
Up high with long sticks - how far down?
Across with long sticks - how far across?

| Learning together, shared decision-making with children and their families as well as peers and connection to community all shape my teaching approaches. |
 |
Negotiating - sharing ideas -working together - building understanding
|
 |
| Being supported to experience the world first hand teaches children about the world |
 | ||
Finding shapes and patterns in everyday things - noticing them myself and sharing my curiosity and interest with children ignites curiosity and interest in them.
We share the learning.

| Sustainability for all children. Developing awareness and concern for the world around them. #global citizenship #baby [Play in natural environments] fulfils basic childhood needs of freedom, adventure and risk-taking" (Greenman, 1993)
