Would you like to join a group of educators collaborating to create a dynamic, responsive Reggio-Inspired environment for children ages three through five? Are you interested in seeing what happens when young children play in our natural world? Utilizing many mediums like clay, paint, paper, light, and shadow? And are you interested in seeing how we work with children while they play and learn in awe and wonder? Are you interested in seeing removing the four walls and working with children?
It is with great pleasure and excitement that we share the “final” iteration of the 2022-2025 Affiliate Network Work Plan. This plan is a result of several years of work culminating in a facilitated process to create strategies and tactics to help us reach the Network Goals established last year. This post contains a copy of the work plan, the launch webinar recording, and copies of the slides from the webinar for Affiliates to use.
The Connecticut Outdoor & Environmental Education Association's Board of Directors is recruiting new board members to join our volunteer team starting January 2022.
