Dear Educators,

 

So glad you joined us for the last Naptime Webinar of 2022!

 

For this Outdoor Learning (OL) edition, Ms. Sakinah Jumahat (Lecturer, NIEC-NP) showed us that outdoor environments can offer varied opportunities for children to explore and learn freely at their own pace, and provide unique ways for them to build different skills.

 

 

We also had the pleasure to hear from our guest speaker from Mandai Wildlife Group. Ms. Karen Chin (Assistant Vice President of Education) shared interesting ways to make learning more explicit at the Singapore Zoo as well as various learning resources for you to boost any adventure outdoors or indoors.

 

 

What's more - Mrs. Loke (Director, NIEC) joined our speakers during the Q&A segment, to provide more outdoor learning insights and strategies for educators.

 

 

 

As early childhood educators 
We play a vital role in creating and providing opportunities for children to learn in, about and through the outdoors! So, make use of these resources, get out and about with the children and let the environment be their teacher!
