This book study will explore the value of slow pedagogies and slow knowledge. Slow pedagogy focuses on the importance of making time for children’s learning and development in a fast-paced society. Session 1 of this book study will look at the reasons to be slow, how the pressures speed up and for children to be ready for the next stage of development, and the relationships children and educators have with time. Session 2 will explore forms of slow practices in the outdoors, in the indoor environment, in daily routines, and in our observation and documentation. The last session will look at how we move forward with this concept and what a ‘timefull’ approach can look like.
