Nature Inspired Learning at Nature Connect
Building Community Partnerships
Nature Connect thrives on building strong community partnerships. We collaborate with local organizations and educational institutions to provide resources and support for outdoor learning initiatives. Our goal is to create a network of educators and community members dedicated to fostering a love for nature in students.
Do you have a project that could use a helping hand? We have consulted with school boards, camps, libraries, and NGOs. Consulting partners include: WRDSB, WCDSB, GEDSB, Five Oaks Retreat Centre, City of Kitchener, Kitchener Public Library, Willowgrove Day Camp, Silver Lake Mennonite Camp, and we are currently working with Right to Play's Indigenous Programs.
Professional Development for Educators
Enhance your teaching skills with Nature Connect's professional development programs. We offer workshops that focus on play-based and land-based learning strategies. Our expert facilitators provide practical tools and insights, empowering educators to create engaging and effective learning environments. We offer workshops on a range of topics related to nature connection, play-based, outdoor, and land-based learning.
Connecting Students to Nature
At Nature Connect, we emphasize the importance of connecting students to nature. Our programmes encourage outdoor exploration, fostering curiosity and a sense of wonder. By integrating nature into the curriculum, we help students develop critical thinking skills and a deeper appreciation for their surroundings.
Curriculum Development Support
We offer curriculum development support, helping educators design effective and engaging lessons. We work closely with teachers to align lessons with curriculum, place, and student interests.
Promoting Indigenous Perspectives
We are committed to promoting Indigenous perspectives in education. Through partner organizations like Métis Legacy Learning, our workshops provide educators with the tools to incorporate Indigenous knowledge and traditions into their teaching. We believe that understanding these perspectives is crucial for fostering respect and reconciliation in our communities.
