Interested about the updated BC Early Learning Framework or completely new to it? This 3-week community of practice welcomes everyone, no matter your experience level! Join us to share insights, ask questions, and support one another as we engage with the BC Early Learning Framework’s inspiring call to “live and learn together.” Through the Living Inquiries outlined in the BC ELF, we’ll explore educational ideas, connect theory to practice, and discover fresh inspiration for your work. Participants will receive a copy of the Early Learning Framework.
Living Inquiries:
- Well-being and Belonging.
- Others, Materials and the World.
- Communication and Literacies.
- Identities, Social Responsibility and Diversity.
Pathways:
- Examine in detail each of the Learning Pathways.
- Connect each Pathway to both teaching practices and theories about education.
- Relate Pathways to classroom experiences.
- Share and discuss ideas that helped to create the ELF, including Indigenous Ways of Knowing and Learning.
Suitable for students, parents, adult instructors/administrators, intermediate and experienced early care and learning professionals working with children of all ages, from infants/toddlers to school age children, including children with extra support needs.
