Reconnecting with Nature: An Assessment of Yi Mi House’s Montessori School’s Nature Program
Public DepositedContenu téléchargeable
open in viewerA nature education is a program that provides a curriculum centered around nature and regular outdoor experiences. Nature education is increasingly recognized as a core component of early childhood education programs because nature can be used to foster early childhood development while preparing children to become stewards of the earth. This report assesses the effectiveness of Yi Mi House’s Montessori School’s (Yi Mi) nature-based educational experience and approach. Through primary and secondary research including parental surveys, instructor interviews, and observational benchmarking, Yi Mi’s nature-based educational program was deemed to be effective at nurturing the development and well-being of children. Despite Yi Mi’s success, suggestions involving curriculum design, outdoor space, and organizational support are provided for continuous improvement of their nature-based educational program.
