What will you learn?

Learning through woodwork is an exciting and valuable part of the early childhood curriculum. And yet it is often one of the most overlooked, and misunderstood play areas. For many early childhood educators we are looking for confidence and a little more "know how" before we feel ready to dive into learning and teaching in the woodwork space.

  • So how can we create a woodwork space that is inviting, well resourced and ready for children to explore in depth. What tools and equipment will we need to ensure our woodwork space is effective?
  • How can we ensure this is a safe play space that also allows for appropriate risk-taking?
  • What learning do children gain from woodwork?
  • What strategies can we put in place to support children’s deep learning in the woodwork space?
  • How can we create collaborative learning for groups of children through woodwork (projects)?


This course includes;

  • Videos exploring each of the modules in depth.
  • Recommended reading.
  • Resources to help you develop confidence and skills for learning and teaching through woodwork.
