We read slowly, never more than one chapter per month; sometimes we repeat a chapter, if we don’t feel finished with it. The dispositions we strengthen include close reading, careful listening and thoughtful conversation. Each meeting, we form a flexible learning group without a fixed destination, with the intention of cultivating a context for uncertainty, diversity and complexity.

To support our Network focus on The Wonder of Learning, and our planned trip to the exhibit next spring, we have decided to insert The Wonder of Learning: The Hundred Languages of Children, into to our scheduled reading list. Beginning in October, we will be reading this title, which is a visual catalogue of the exhibit, a collection of essays, and documentation of the work of both children and adults.

Dodge Nature Preschool is offering this one-day conference to give educators an opportunity to observe and learn about nature-based education. Find inspiration, engage in dialogue with colleagues and learn practical ideas to help incorporate nature-based education into your classroom and school environment.  

 Join us at the Learning Conference to:  

• Hike with a guide through preschool and Nature Center grounds.
• Observe in preschool classrooms.  
• Engage with materials in our resource room 
• Participate in breakout sessions:  

Habitat Hike- With the guidance of a Dodge Nature Center naturalist, learn about local habitats and ecosystems.  Find out what natural resources you can go deeper with at your own setting.
