Storytelling with Children

Story Dictation and Story Acting is a powerful classroom practice. When we invite children to share their stories, we gain insights into their thoughts and values. When we come together to act out children's stories, our classroom community connects and strengthens. Storytelling with children offers another opportunity to include their interests, ideas and exploration while also fostering their imaginations and supporting their social interactions. Join us for an examination of the role of stories in our early childhood programs.

Authentic and Intentional Collage 
(In the process of Develop approval)

The first hour will be an introduction of Kinderberry Hill - its context and the history of its journey with the Reggio Approach.  This will include a tour of the center.

Participants will explore the many opportunities for more complex collages that are possible  if offered with more intentionality on the part of the teacher.  

Workshop includes handouts of resources and samples of books.  In the classrooms, many types of collage with a wide variety of materials will be set up to gain hands-on  familiarity of the many possibilities of collage materials and techniques.  The morning will end with dialog, reflection and evaluation.

Big Body Rough and Tumble Play

We know that the body is a main vehicle and tool for learning in early childhood, yet we often ask children to "slow down," "stop touching that," or "sit still," because we think/believe/forget (insert your own reasoning here) that very key principle - children need to move to learn. And that includes big, powerful expression from children! During this Gathering, we will look at how big-body AND rough-and-tumble play support key learning areas in early childhood that span beyond just the physical domain.

Presenters: Teaching with the Body in Mind Podcast team: Tom Bedard, Mike Huber, Joey Schoen, Ross Thompson
