Fascination of Fire: Nature-Based Inquiries for Children (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781906116613)

This series of curriculum and nature-based planning journals are designed to provide both a curriculum framework of ideas and provocations and unique 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 charcoal as a medium. The second is planning lessons about academic subjects to ensure breadth and balance in your program linking back to the investigation into charcoal. Two options in one book to bring back the joy to planning.

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. Children will remember these experiences and will 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 charcoal in mark making, paint, making water filters and much more documented through Claire's world renowned Floorbook(R) approach and start to see the huge amount of learning that takes place in the process of learning with nature.
