  • Summary

  • We know that powerful things are happening in education and that those powerful things often go unnoticed or are siloed (within a community). We’ve built a space to share those powerful things, where we aren’t constrained by distance and scheduling. We’ll combine our 35 years of K - 12 teaching experience with the unique perspectives of our guests to connect you to relevant ideas and experiences. Listen in to motivate your practice, challenge your current pedagogy, and expand your horizons with stories from educators near and far.

    Agency: Attunement and Wellbeing
    Dec 23 2024
    Today we are talking Agency with our friend Lara! We talk getting outside, the best ways we can show up for children, and how we teach students to learn about their own needs.


    About Laura

    Lara Lloyd The Forest School Lady and Owner of Park Hall Forest School
    After living in Finland, Lara was a traditional Primary School teacher in strict Private schools who was always trying to find an excuse to flee the classroom and get outside. She now runs a year-round, fully outdoor early years setting where the emphasis is on guiding children to look after their needs, their friends and their environment and be the best humans they can be. Lara has a masters in family psychology and so also tries to integrate the whole family into the Forest School way of living. Lara offers training including an agency audit and online mentoring chats to troubleshoot issues in your setting on your path to independence and agency.
    You can find Lara and her school at @theForestschoollady and @parkhallforestschool

  • Agency: Context, Control, and Iceland Part 2

    Agency: Context, Control, and Iceland Part 2
    Dec 9 2024

    This is part two of our conversation. If you haven't yet listened to part one, you'll want to start there. In this episode, we discuss the concept of control in educational settings, drawing insights from our observations in Icelandic schools. We highlight how Icelandic schools foster autonomy and responsibility in children, allowing them to manage their own time and decisions, such as meal choices and transitions. We touch on the curriculum we learned about from our observations and conversations with teachers, and talk about the important takeaways for us an educators.
