They are caring, creative and will help your child make meaningful connections to nature. WAWA will facilitate programming that is principled in our Environmental Education pedagogy including; the power of play, placed-based learning, cultural relevance, inquiry instruction, and social constructivism. These principles are underlying but with the use of the outdoors as our classroom, youth will utilize these learning styles while developing knowledge of natural sciences, water hydrology, nature preservation, consideration for living things, agriculture, and cosmology, to name a few. The theme for this week, June 8-12, is "Keepers of the Elements", where we will harness the fundamental elements of nature - earth, water, air, and fire.
