Planning for Wonder!
Back to School Prep for Preschool
Children flourish in environments that support joyful exploration and play. Start the year planning for wonder! How can you create a classroom where children feel welcome, represented, and inspired to take ownership of their learning? Are you revising one interest area or tackling the entire room? Either way, this webinar will share ideas and tips as you prepare a space that encourages exploration and creativity. Topics include room arrangement (furniture selection and placement), intentional introduction and organization of materials, establishing responsive routines and rituals, and creating and using visual supports. Together we’ll plan for wonder-rich and engaging classrooms where learning and inquiry abound!
