A small learning History

Some time ago I met colleagues from Kita-Neumünster, which I reported on the "learning history". I was so inspired that I might as well with children in the forest was, where it is today enshrined in the educational concept. The AWO kindergartens in Kiel have be inspired and have been using this kindergarten year, this form of communication between kindergarten and primary school. Today I would like to introduce them to you:

in Neumünster in 2007 had been dealt constructively about how, then, might look like a well-successful "transition nursery school" ( background and origin ). The result is a small, seemingly insignificant issue and a principle that is simple, focused and practical: The learning history . This is the documentation of a future first-graders from him / her self in cooperation with educators and parents. How this works in detail, experienced educators here, and parents there. This little booklet is in principle no such thing as a "pass" is where the skills and abilities of each child are documented in a brief that the teacher blogs in the number of students in the class and can quickly grasp.

The highlight of the whole thing is that all day care facilities in Neumünster, this booklet use and also for further binding agreements are entered into with the primary schools. I think we should think in Kiel views about whether this is also what for us!

PS: But first ask in each case by the colleagues in NMS, for there is a copyright.

Moin moin, I just come out of the woods, where I now work with a school class - was away from the Royal and my colleagues - including teachers. I am particularly glad that appear to slowly but surely, the forest-related education also included in the training of educators and social work assistants in Kiel. That was not the first professional school class that was with us in the forest, but the students have now created, among other things famous for its beautiful forest pictures that I would not hide from you:

The forest as a place of learning outside schools

Maybe you've even ever heard of BdF - the Federation of German foresters. That is, in principle, the professional body for foresters in Germany. But foresters was among us and is not clear to everyone how important the teaching of natural science knowledge and forest education, and that it this is an original field of the task Grünbefrackten. Fortunately, the new generation of foresters has understood the importance of Education for Sustainable Development ", and started again active in the forest education" interfere ". Colleagues from the State Forest Administration, Hesse and Brandenburg have done such as jointly with the University of Freiburg and the Teacher Training School in Ludwigsburg in the past two years, a special project: 30 Hessian and 9 Brandenburg forester and a number of educators have developed proposals for after-school learning programs for secondary school . The result is: do sustainability!

This is but fortunately only the beginning, followed by other projects are! Since I will dig deeper but the same times, as it looks at the Schleswig-Holstein gentlemen

The new "device management"!

Uiuiui, I could only begin with the concept of nothing, and somehow it sounded so sterile and cold and reminded of unpleasant things. But then I learned that it lies directly behind a man - and the so-called educational management! Since we have children in the forest more than one group, it is necessary that a / e accepts specially trained educators in the overall management of the educational part of the operation, but also a day in a group at the Children is active. Our Executive heads have long smoked until it was a result because this position is the important one-stop shop for carriers, employees, authorities and parents.

I will not reveal too much, but I'm sympathetic to these young people may already know and have to say that I am looking forward to working with you very much. You want to know who it is? Well, unfortunately I missed the first forestry colleagues muzzled here, since the first personal introduction to the next trial day take place. So if you're just as curious as I do, then look a look. It's worth it!

Besides the usual, unavoidable bills, there was also a very interesting letter today: The Kiel council parties of SPD and Greens would like to organize a Berlin model a "long day of city nature" in Kiel in the next year. Since I first made at the Berliners smart: They have organized for the fourth time such an action this June. Various actors from the "Environment and Nature" presented the Berlin citizens their work and offered an information and hands-on program. Find particularly clever I search for the individual events. Since I immediately looked even know what has been offered for children there: forest adventure for the youngest, intermediate Burrow and burdock rich, Knut and climate change stories in the woods, mud on the playground, witch-herbs kitchen and and and even a wild boar game was possible! - I'm thrilled and I then sent a notification gleichmal: Kiel. Buzz me so many ideas for such a day in my head .... what would you like to do for children in the woods? Looking forward to your suggestions!

Last Saturday ...

... we had our first trial day in the woods this year. The weather was the day before was pretty bad, and we had been worrying about whether parents and children would come at all. On the way there I passed an intersection and saw this beautiful forest tree stump:


The rain had let the mushrooms sprout. Our concern was unfounded way. With a large group we pulled together a little later to one of our forest areas, where we demonstrated the wood sofa, the new parents and children a little something from the forest nursery life. Fortunately, we were not soaking wet, as most Rain was intercepted by the tree crowns.


Then it went to the Wolf's Glen, and all had great fun climbing up there and slide down. About the most consistently positive response of the parents we are very pleased. With many new children in the Children's Forest will soon be even more exciting and fun.

The emergency shelter in the forest

The other day I was working closely with our new shelter. Since we have new groups of children, we also need more Bauwägen. A forest nursery in principle, need an emergency shelter outside the forest, the children and teachers during storms, thunderstorms and other situations that a stay in the forest make it impossible to find quickly. Weather permitting, the children sometimes sit at tables and benches in front of the car: paint, crafts, or deal with other things that make a stay there required.

were used converted disused forest workers Bauwägen often difficult by the parents at the weekend for the special needs of the forest nursery. Nowadays there are companies that manufacture according to individual wishes of the carrier they are adjusted for forest nurseries. These companies have years of experience in the construction of forest workers consider that this was beneficial development. This weighing of forest nurseries in the Usually 6 to 10 m long, solar panels on the roof (for electricity and hot water), have a wood or gas stove, a small. Drying chamber, a sanitary facility and a small kitchenette. There are also plenty of storage space, hooks, benches, etc. Better than any camper! :-)

State-certified / r forest educator / e

there are now a plethora of training opportunities - including the environment. As a forester I am of course by the teacher / educator Ranger tandem convinced, for only together can we teach our children and young people all that should know what to do. A few years ago, the state forest authorities have agreed to offer a uniform national training for teachers and foresters in the field of forest-related environmental education: The forest education certificate.
nationwide framework agreement
This is for career professionals and includes 15 modules in the areas of forestry, Education, law and elective subjects and a 40stündigen internship and a final exam. - At the forefront of this was the house of the forest in Stuttgart: There have already been offered one-day seminars in these areas. Even today you can assemble the individual modules at will - the main thing in each subject area are completed sufficiently. There forest education certificate Ba-Wü

In the other provinces there now have the opportunity to purchase the forest education certificate - usually it's related course units in the different areas. Here's a few:
Schleswig-Holstein
North Rhine-Westphalia
Bayern

Hessen Rheinland-Pfalz
Sachsen-Anhalt Niedersachsen


make my colleagues in the Children's Forest team this further - in some cases in different states - and are totally thrilled. If I now and then by his colleagues in the "country", am I too look like to enter for one or the other seminar in the house of the forest.
