Facilitated by: Mary Hewitt, MPEd (ECE), RECE, BEd, BA (Psychology)How do we create engaging environments and invitations that truly meet up with the minds and hearts of children? In this session, we explore How Does Learning Happen?’s ENGAGEMENT Foundation through the lens of Materials and Invitations for Play.
We will explore the important research surrounding “awe” and partake in exercises that re-acquaint us with our own deep sense of awe and wonder. In doing so, we can truly see the world (and materials!) through the ‘eyes of a child’—an essential element to offering engaging opportunities in our programs.
Educators will also have the opportunity to live-into engagement by creating their own invitations for play, developing their understanding of the ‘educator as provocateur’ and immerse themselves in learning about the role of ‘emergence’ in children’s play.
