Hold on to what is good even if it is a handful of earth.

Hold on to what you believe even if it is a tree which stands by itself.

Hold on to what you must do even if it is a long way from here.

Hold on to life even when it is easier letting go.

Hold on to my hand even when I have gone away from you.

Dinosaur Patterning for Two Year Olds




Dear Adele,
I teach wee ones at the RCM on Saturdays. We have been experimenting with a multidisciplinary program for ECE. Here are some pics of my forays into teaching patterning through visual art to two year olds. We are playing with hand made play dough and exploring making dino footprints and other patterns. I love, and know you do too, how little people jump into story journeys so readily. They are always making characters and connections and scenarios in their free play. Even though my teacher brain was thinking about teaching patterns, the children took that free play to a whole new place. You can imagine some of their stories through these pictures. Enjoy!
Nicole

    This looks like so much fun. Thanks for bringing these photos and this idea forward.
    I really like the possibilities.
