Introduction to Our Project
Holistic education is an important approach to consider in regards to the 21st century learner. It offers educators and students the opportunity to collaborate and discover new ways of exploration and inquiry within the classroom. Holistic education nurtures and educates our students physically, emotionally, spiritually and intellectually. We feel that a holistic approach to teaching and learning can have a positive effect on the health and well-being of our students. Through our diverse educational backgrounds, we were able to create a website that would guide teachers and educators through a holistic approach to teaching and learning focusing on the students health and well-being.
Guidance for our website
This website has been created by teachers, for teachers. We would like to share some resources on our fellow educators interested in holistic education. On this site you will find some theoretical overview as well as some practical examples. We have created examples for Elementary School, Middle School, and High School so that you can find your area of focus with greater ease. Also we have a section on Mindful Meditation in the classroom applicable across all three divisions.
In addition you can find a collection of resources all in one easy to use page to further your interest in holistic education. If you have more to share, please see the “Contact Us” page and let us know your thoughts. We look forward to furthering the discussion on this burgeoning field of education.
