Children are naturally attracted to light, to sparkle, to shadows, to colors and movement. How can we explore light with the children we care for, and encourage their deep thinking about these phenomena?

Join a community of practice exploring light, shadow, and color all year long. Designed for educators who have previously attended a STEAM PLC or with an interest in light play, each participant (or participating team) will share documentation and provocations each month. The group will meet monthly to share activities, documentation, reflections, and resources.

Together we will:

Explore children’s natural attraction to light play and our role in deepening the complexity of these explorations

Share light play activities, documentation, and resources

Reflect on the learning and exploring we see children in, and plan our next steps

Think about how and when we share scientific concepts and vocabulary with children during their explorations

Inspire ourselves to try new materials, new questions, and new provocations

Meet with other educators to share ideas, challenges, and successes
