The aim of the Workshops was to encourage everyone to become cosmic storytellers. We used a variety of approaches. These included: – Sitting Still, […] View

    Hi Jennifer,
    Unfortunately this doesn’t work. A sign comes up saying ‘Hulu is not currently available outside the U.S.
    Many thanks,

      Darn. I imagine it’ll be available in other ways soon. Will let you know. If someone else finds out a way that people in other countries can watch the series COSMOS, please be sure to post a comment on the Activity Stream. Thanks!

    Looks fascinating! Does anyone know how to receive the programme in the UK?

    For more examples of last Thursday’s Free Fall writing (some of them go down to 7/8 year old) please go to: –

    I’m really happy with the writing because I feel, across the school, the children really managed to capture some of the wonders and mysteries of the universe.

      Thanks so much for this. I’m going to send some Montessori teachers to your site because they’re doing similar things and it would be fascinating to compare experiences!

    Last Thursday, Silvia from Global Generation and I went to a school in Oxford to work on a film and carry out some ‘Free Fall Writing’ on the Universe Story.
    I’ve always been inspired by Jennifer’s wonderful books and have often used them in the classroom to further develop children’s understanding of the Universe Story. The Story, being in 1st…[Read more]

          Jennifer, they were 11. Rod, these two stories are wonderful! I feel so happy that these children are ‘getting it’, the excitement and vastness and joy of the story. Bravo!

            Eleven years old, upper elementary, is a perfect age for the Story as Maria Montessori observed over sixty years ago.

    Hi Jennifer,
    Really great that you are reaching so many teachers! The memorable moment is an important one I think. However, I think its worth questioning – ‘What actually is the Core Curriculum?’ and ‘What actually is Cosmic Education’? For me ‘Cosmic Education’ actually is the Context within which everything abides. So we won’t forget the Core…[Read more]

      I couldn’t agree with you more Rod. Within the cosmic context, everything comes together and makes sense, and its so inspirational for the students. The videos of your work really show how this is true.
