One way we like to do this is to ask the children to draw or write thank you cards for the guest educator. This gives them a chance to process their experience and show their appreciation. Then we can observe what impressed them and the educator gets a really beautiful thank you from the children for their work. Receiving twenty hand drawn and hand written thank yous will most certainly make someone's day :) Hi,

I felt so fortunate to be invited to work, once again, with students at The Garden Road School. And, yes, I do love what I do. Sharing my appreciation and joy of dance with others of all ages is the core of my personal and professional fulfillment and happiness. We all have a hidden dancer in us, especially when we hear the kind of music that makes us want to move! My job is to awaken that dancer spirit and draw it out... get it movin' without inhibition!

I wonder what kind of reflection you do with the students after learning like this. The Reggio Emilia approach often asks the students to reflect on their learning by drawing, storytelling, narrative, journaling. It always provides a way for teachers and the parents to understand what the students are learning and also give students a point of reference for learning later on. interested to learn more about this work.
