Fantastic presentation from one of our Froebel in Childhood Practice students. Thank you for sharing you work. #Froebel
Tonight I had the privilege of listening to Mrs Heggie who had been asked to present her Froebel project - Nurture with Nature Growing the seeds of Love. So incredibly proud of all Mrs Heggie’s hard work and passion to encourage our children in their gardening projects! ⭐️ @falkirkfroebel.bsky.social
A wonderful demonstration of the ways children incorporate their experiences in their play. These are children who know the story well, they have heard it many times and they are using what they know to re-tell the story. So many important skills being developed here #Froebel #ELCBeingMe
Some children have been showing an interest in building houses.We have been reading the story ‘The Three Little Pigs’. Some of the children have been recreating the story using block play. Encouraging creativity, problem solving and language skills whilst storytelling. 💛 @falkirkfroebel.bsky.social
