Here is my attempt at crafting an earth based, inclusive, multicultural, child-centered, education calendar. Obviously anything like this, ultimately has to be co-created, collaboratively, so I offer it up to the community to add on to, adapt, critique, and make your own. Personalize this calendar for you and yours and share your game plan with others. Look at an upcoming month and see how you, your family and friends can make time for the things that are important to all of you. Talk about what you want to do to connect with the natural world; what you want to know more about in terms of our collective and divergent histories; how do you want to expand your cultural horizons; how can you learn more about where you live and the world; how can you explore your passions and cultivate your interests; what teachers will help you be the person you want to be; what can you do to become active participants and citizens in your community and make positive changes in our world; how can you celebrate the true, the good and the beautiful; how can your family have fun this month playing, learning, growing, changing, loving! Use this home made calendar to plan your journey and then turn it into a scrapbook of your adventures.
Credit goes to Mary Holland’s book Naturally Curious for the nature based titles for each month. We can also look to seasonal rubrics to cover different seasonal activities such as “wintering,” “springing,” “summering,” and “falling.”
