Children and learning
Children are learning from the moment they are born. In this session, we will look at what children can learn from their environment. This session has an accompanying Lesson in a Box and can be taught independently of an academic, should it be required.
What is ‘childhood’?
It’s time to question our ideas of what it means to be a child! This session explores many different sociological and psychological constructions of childhood to try to decide what childhood actually is.
What shapes children’s lives?
Each child’s life is different depending on a wide range of factors; from family members, relationships and exposure to media, to physical and mental health. We will look at some of these factors that could affect a child’s life and we will discuss how these relate to the areas of education, society and welfare, disability, health and wellbeing, and how we can view a child’s life holistically.
