1. I love the idea of teaching math outside of the classroom, we are a play based pre-school so we get outdoors as much as possible, incorporating math just seems like a natural step in our curriculum.
2. Just realizing how easy it is to incorporate math into every outdoor activity we do everyday. I hope to inspire my coworkers and see how far we can take the concepts I will/have learned in the e-course.
3. My manifesto is to be excited about math outdoors, to inspire my students and coworkers with very simple yet effective concepts. So often I get caught up in the day to day aspects of my teaching, it would be good to step back and really focus on this concept and incorporate year round. I wish this would have been in place for me as a young student, I definitely struggled with math, I am hoping to instill a love for the subject at a young age.
Fantastic reflections!
#2 I am excited to dig into this course to think about new ideas to add to the outdoor classroom, ways to organize the additions, and ways to guide the children to take care of the supplies. I am excited to add purposeful materials to their work space so that the children can enjoy creating their own work/projects, as if they were indoors and using our materials there.
#3 I would be delighted if more of my coworkers embraced the idea of having supplies for the children outdoors. I would like to encourage all of us to help the children learn to be responsible for our supplies so that they last a long time.
Thank you for your thoughtful reflections. I love how you describe “purposeful materials” outdoors. I invite you to write these intentions in your journal so you can look back at the end of the e-course. Looking forward!
#2 I realize my garden and outdoor experiences are rich in are and literacy has really grown this year. Now I want to add more math. We are also building a new center and designing new outdoor spaces and this is the perfect time to think and capture ideas.
#3 I think a break through would be adding math in a way I never even considered before and I would be delighted to see my children run away with the idea.
Love, love, love these! Time for more Math Outdoors! I love the image for your children running away with many of the Math ideas in this e-Course. If you have a journal, please write these two intentions in the opening pages. It will be fun to look back and see if they were met and what else you will come away with.
