Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject Pedagogy - School Pedagogics, grade: 1,0, University of Münster, language: English, abstract: This essay tries to give an insight into the way Forest Schools work and wants to highlight the value of outdoor learning. The Foundation of Forest Schools is added upfront to get a first impression on the origin of Forest Schools. Then I state the development and the key principles of Forest Schools. Furthermore, I take a closer look at the learning environment to give an understanding of the structures and the resulting risks and challenges of a Forest School session. To connect the given theory with a practical example the fourth chapter deals with two exemplary sessions. To conclude, the last chapter revolves around different perspectives on Forest Schools and what impact they have on society. In the end, I summarize the main points and give an outlook. All in all, this paper assists the reader to open up to new possibilities of teaching and learning with less focus on a strict curriculum.

This is a book which considers the following: (i) Different approaches educators can take to working with children in outdoor environments (ii) The benefits of each approach, favouring those which are more child-led. (iii) The book will examine how practice in the woodland can influence educators and how they can support children's learning outdoors and indoors. The book will bring new understandings to practice in the nursery garden or school grounds, and will include an evaluation of how practice at Reflections Nursery has changed and developed in this context.

This forward-thinking text challenges educators to think about and question the purpose of education and explores international understandings of the role played by early years professionals in promoting participatory, ethical and reflexive practice which benefits children as independent decision-makers. By exploring the different perspectives, concepts and practices adopted in early childhood settings in Denmark, Finland, Aotearoa, New Zealand and Sweden, Empowering Early Childhood Educators demonstrates the potential of participatory and democratic approaches in day-to-day practice. Illustrating how pedagogical approaches such as Te Whāriki, Reggio Emilia and the Montessori method may be understood and interpreted to maximise children’s engagement in their socio-cultural context, chapters empower educators to question their professional experience, knowledge and initiative to find a balance between directives and ethical practice. A rich combination of case studies, commentaries, interviews and conversations, the text offers critical insight into the daily practices and challenges of early years educators around the world and inspires critical reflection on practices which empower them. A powerful revaluation of the purposes and value of early childhood education, Empowering Early Childhood Educators will be of interest to early years practitioners, students and researchers.
