Planning for Inquiry Resource Bundle
Back-to-school Workshop + Additional resources
This workshop recording introduces the four branches of Natural Curiosity and Indigenous perspectives on environmental inquiry. Zoe Donoahue (Grade 1) and Mike Martins (Grade 3), Teacher-Researchers at the Dr. Eric Jackman Institute of Child Study Laboratory School (University of Toronto), shared about their inquiry-based teaching practice and support a discussion around how educators can begin to plan for inquiry. This session provides inspiration, ideas, and strategies for educators who wish to incorporate environmental inquiry or deepen their Natural Curiosity practice in the coming year.
Virtual Cree Language Course
Brought to you by Natural Curiosity and the Outdoor Learning Store
We invite you to join us for this introductory Nêhiyawêwin (Plains Cree language) course. This course is open to everyone - both Indigenous and non-Indigenous participants who wish to learn and uplift language revitalization. The geographic regions this course would be most applicable to are Saskatchewan, Alberta, Manitoba, and Montana. We know that Indigenous knowledge and perspectives are foundational to outdoor learning and learning from the Land, and learning the language of the local Land is a critical part of deepening knowledge and understanding.
In this fascinating discussion Claire Underwood shares the findings from the Community of Practice guided by the Natural Curiosity text. Claire also shares stories from educators who have implemented the empathy model.
