Blooming Brilliant Podcast about Joyful Active Learning
This podcast is brilliant and so inspiring. The passion that Edwina oozes puts a smile on my face when I listen. She not only is inspiring but practical too. Her suggestions come with real anecdotes that inspire action. She shares her passion with such enthusiasm that this should be mandatory for all teachers AND legislators to listen as part of weekly Professional Development. Link it to you playlist now!!
Great educational podcast
Great thoughts from Edwina. She’s easy to listen to and provides very thought provoking content. I’ve been a teacher for 33 years now in the UK and really value her ideas on inquiry based learning. I shall definitely be downloading her 101 resource as I’ve been put in reception next year – and dreading it! (But trying to change my mindset😁).
Inquiry, Curiosity and Outdoors for Youngers
Love the concrete strategies Edwina is giving to help inspire curiosity in our young learners. She’s also showing us how we empower learners by including them in their own learning. Give it a listen if you are a teacher or parent looking to get youngers outside and curious!
Five Star Content!
Top notch, I highly recommend this podcast to homeschool parents and early learning teachers. Just lovely!
