At Abracadabra Creative Learning, we believe that learning and play are mutually reinforcing each other – for children, but also adults, and that less is more. We are supporting teachers and schools to teach basic math and language skills in a child-centred way using Montessori-inspired play-based learning.

This 4-week online ´Play-based learning bootcamp´

Is designed for teachers and teaching assistants in pre-schools and kindergartens who face limited resources, but who still want to prepare children for success at school in the most effective way. 

You will learn about:

  • How to teach foundational early learning skills in a more effective way with playful learning methods.
  • About the key principles of child-centered learning and Montessori-inspired early learning activities.
  • How to easily create your own locally recycled hands-on learning materials for teaching math and literacy.
  • How to manage an interactive classroom

During the course we will:

  • Develop your own play-based learning materials based on local and recycled materials that can be found around the school.
  • Learn how to more effectively teach children based on their capacities and talents at different levels.

And most importantly, you will have an opportunity to connect with other teachers from around the world who work in a similar setting as you.

"Thank you very much for the training! It was as if the training was prepared for me. I was expecting to learn how to better teach math and how to read and to write. Now, I keep on revising the way I am teaching. I liked most how the training is organised, because it gave us sufficient time to discuss the content and to ask questions whenever we had them."
