STEAM and Outdoor Learning

Course description

Students develop an appreciation of children’s curiosity and sense of wonder in the curriculum areas of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics (STEAM). Students learn the value of following the child’s interests while designing and implementing experiences for children from 2.5 years to eight years of age. Emphasis is placed on co-creating outdoor learning environments and experiences that foster an understanding and appreciation for land based learning within the natural environment. In alignment with early childhood education philosophy, curriculum focuses on the importance of inquiry-based learning while developing process-oriented experiences based on emerging skills

Students registering for credit courses for the first time must declare a program at the point of registration. Declaring a program does not necessarily mean students must complete a program, individual courses may be taken for skill improvement and upgrading.
