Cubbies and Identity
Event description
Belonging and Being in Nature: Creating identity and learning through Cubbies
Join the Educated by Nature team in this 2-hour workshop for educators and parents.
Using the childhood tradition of building cubbies as a form of play to learn and build community, we investigate how this tradition can be incorporated with the Australian Curriculum to build new classroom culture. Calling on research from David Sobel, as well as Daniel Burton and Trudi Bennett’s experience with Nature Pedagogy, we explore the place of cubby building along a child development continuum and possibilities for projects and investigations.
The following Professional Learning workshop has been designed to consider the whole child in their development through interaction with nature in a school or early learning environment. Trudi and Daniel combine child development theory with storytelling and experiential activities. Their aim is to help educators take the first steps required to commence, reinvigorate or enhance outdoor learning possibilities.
This workshop has been designed with reference to the Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership Teaching Standards. Standards 1.1, 1.2, 1.5, 3.1, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 4.1, 4.2, 4.4, 6.1, 6.2, 6.4, 7.4
Participants receive a certificate of participation at the completion of this workshop.
