Childhood and Nature
Comstock Publishing Associates (Verlag)
978-1-5017-7854-4 (ISBN)
Sobel articulates seven design principles that teachers can use to build learning experiences: adventure, fantasy and imagination, animal allies, maps and paths, special places, small worlds, and hunting and gathering,. Pulling from recurrent play themes and real-world examples from educators, Sobel details placed-based projects and lessons for each principle. Students learn and develop vital skills through engagement with their local environments and communities. Miniature ecosystems in the "small world" of a sandbox, for example, can help children grasp larger, abstract ideas.
A timely and actionable resource, Childhood and Nature shows how centering the world around us in education can create a generation of nature students, explorers, and protectors.
David Sobel is Professor Emeritus at Antioch University New England and cofounder of the Harrisville Children's Center. Sobel is the author of Beyond Ecophobia, Place-based Education, The Sky Above and the Mud Below, and Wild Play.
