Using the natural world to encourage children to develop a love of expression
Wild Literacy is all about taking children out into their natural environment to enhance their understanding of the wider world around them, and to develop the vocabulary needed to talk about their experiences.
The world around us offers the perfect learning environment, which inspires and encourages children to develop a love of expression and conversation.
By taking children outdoors and encouraging them to engage with nature
we can take sometimes complicated and confusing vocabulary into an experience which can be felt through practical and hands-on activities.
The project is funded by Talking Together.
What do we offer?
This training opportunity and resource is aimed at giving you the starting blocks to make this happen. The resources have all been designed in a step-by-step approach so that you can use them at the different stages of learning.
We will also include an electronic copy so you can print and add your own ideas and experiences as you go.
