15 Pages
Unlock the power of Aboriginal pedagogies with the "8 Ways of Learning" toolkit, designed for early childhood educators to integrate traditional knowledge systems into modern frameworks like the National Quality Framework (NQF) and the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF).
This comprehensive toolkit features eight transformative methodologies:
Story Sharing, Learning Maps, Non-verbal Learning, Symbols and Images, Land Links, Non-linear Learning, Deconstruct/Reconstruct, and Community Links.
These methods foster active listening, visual learning, hands-on activities, ecological awareness, reflective practices, analytical skills, and community engagement. By aligning activities with EYLF outcomes, providing professional development, and encouraging community involvement, this toolkit honours Aboriginal traditions and enriches the educational experiences of all children.
