We all need time to play in puddles. It is a true delight to be on
a walk and discover a puddle and explore how deep and wide it is,
as well as how big a splash it makes. Puddles are one of the most
wonderful play materials that nature can provide. It is wonderful
to see children meet a puddle for the first time and observe it
with such awe and wonder. The question for us as practitioners and
educators is: how do we use something as simple as a puddle to
develop complex learning? This series of curriculum and
nature-based planning journals are designed to provide both a
curriculum framework and pages to complete that allow room for the
development of child-led inquiries. Understanding the learning when
we are outside can be a challenge. This series of books provides
the support you need to create high quality programs that all of
your team can engage with. Ideas stem from case studies and give
planning from two angles. The first is as a context for child-led
learning, such as the exploration of puddles. The second is
planning lessons about academic subjects to ensure breadth and
balance in your program. The Fascination Series is a way of
starting to reveal the opportunities for children to learn with
nature, not about it, by not just sitting in it, but by connecting
to it. They will take messages from it and start to ponder their
significance in terms of the larger issues that face us in modern
society, such as sustainability. Enjoy the stories of how children
have explored puddles gathered through Claire's world renowned
Floorbook(R) documentation and start to see the huge amount of
learning that takes place in the process of learning with nature.
