Activity 3.5 | Curriculum Making with Place

Listening to Children's Voices

Connecting to Natural Spaces

First, watch the TEDx Talk,"Nature Kindergarten" (Krusekopf, 2015), where Frances shares her leadership story in her effort to support children’s connection to Nature.

Then, watch the YouTube video "PIAZZA_PIAZZE" (Reggio Children, 2013) to consider how public spaces can be a place of collectivity and encounter, while embracing the idea of participation, democracy and relations in young learning.
