For many of my friends in early childhood, this is the time of year they love most. It’s summertime. Some programs take a break. Other programs have a slower pace, more like summer camp. Professors’ schedules are often lighter. Whatever it’s like for your work, I hope you can take a bit of a breather to appreciate the summer.
Noticing & Wondering in the Fred Rogers Archive
Incredible learning can happen when we make time to slow down, pay close attention, and intentionally observe the world around us. This guide offers a simple way to practice exploring curiosity, careful observation, and slowing down with your students.
Talking to Children about Difficult Things in the News
During times of tragedy and difficulty in the news, it can be difficult to know whether and how to talk to children about what is happening in their world. In this resource we offer ideas and support for guiding children through news about difficult current events.
Your financial support of the Institute helps us expand our initiatives and resources so that educators and children's helpers can continue to learn and grow from Fred Rogers' legacy. Thank you!
