How Imagination Can Inform Inclusion (Strategies for Inclusive ECCE) – Online Workshop

Inclusion is a difficult concept and an even more difficult reality. Early childhood educators do struggle with “applying”, “adapting”, and “designing” inclusion in their classrooms. Sometimes this struggle comes from feelings of helplessness, loneliness, and lack of self-confidence. These feelings are fueled by the lack of time, lack of resources, and mostly stress.

This workshop will walk participants through a multitude of practical and theoretical aspects of inclusion that will try to shift some of the usual misconceptions and fears around this complex aspect of the ECCE’s everyday pedagogy. Annabella will introduce the participants to the theory of Imaginative Education and will demonstrate and invite the audience to practice, along with her, some applications of the somatic cognitive tools. These tools will help teachers see inclusion in a new way

Be ready to move, create rhythms, build some tools, and have a lot of fun!
