As part of our sewing journey, nursery children have been creating valentines cards using needles and thread. #slowPedagogy #FrobelOccupations
Our nursery children have been using needles to thread beads, making necklaces and bracelets with them. This is the beginning of our sewing project. #slowPedagogy #FrobelOccupations
We went for a lovely walk exploring at the children’s pace in our local community. Froebel: Falkirk Network #engagingwithnature #slowpedagogy #autonomouslearners 💐
Today some of the children explored the woods. We looked for birds, splashed in the streams and enjoyed some warm soup. #engagingwithnature #slowpedagogy #thecentralimportanceofplay Froebel: Falkirk Network
Slow pedagogy in action as these learners immersed themselves in foraging around the garden this afternoon, looking for potatoes and natural materials to mix in their pots. ‘We need flowers’ said A. 🪴 #slowpedagogy
After looking the different flowers in our front garden, we decided to see what we could find in the walled gardens. “Purple ones are my favourite” 🌹🌸💐 #slowpedagogy #exploringnature
Another busy week in the Sewing corner🧵🪡 Look at some of the wonderful sewing that has been happening 👏🏻 #slowpedagogy
The sewing club continues. Children are developing skills for life, practicing concentration and fine motor skills. #SlowPedagogy
Our learners have been interested in mini beasts and flowers so chose to go to Dollar Park today. What a fantastic day we had! Froebel: Falkirk Network #slowpedagogy
At the wallet gardens, we used books to identify the insects we found 🦟🐜🪰 #slowpedagogy #exploringnature

We had a wonderful day exploring in the woods. We were so excited to find frogs today as well as spotting, swans, ducks and squirrels. 🐿 🦢🐸 Froebel: Falkirk Network #engagingwithnature #slowpedagogy

Our learners, continue developing their senses and having fun at the water area. Children’s play is showing lots of curiosity,exploration and fun. #CuriosityApproach #SlowPedagogy
Today on our engaging with Nature session, we noticed leaves and flowers growing with the change of seasons. We listened to the birds tweeting and heard so many sound’s in the woods. The children engaged in risky play climbing and exploring.🌳🍃🌲 #engagingwithnature #slowpedagogy
Fabulous outing to the woods for our last Peep session of this term, our families had a wonderful time exploring the woods together, guided by the children at a nice slow pace #engagingwithnature #slowpedagogy Watch this space for further Peep sessions in August
This learner enjoyed taking the time to create her model over two days. “I’ll want to do more to it tomorrow.” “Look how many nails I have!” G counted 33 before deciding to add a few more. #Jan2023 #slowpedagogy #freedomtocreate Froebel: Falkirk Network
