Early Learning Collaborative
You are the first. You are the first to greet them at the door and teach them all that school can be, places of curiosity and discovery, wonder and awe, funny playmates, and patient teachers. It is here that they will learn about how to cooperate and share, participate in a community of their own, to persist and practice, to tie and untie, to build and rebuild.
Join our monthly Early Childhood Collaborative, where we will share ideas and resources, discuss the NH Early Learning Standards, plan engaging and meaningful lessons and play-based activities, supporting children's learning and development, partnering with families, and creating warm and active learning spaces. Convenient video meetings allow all early childhood educators to participate!
