A shared pedagogy transforms how learning communities think, relate, and collaborate.

 

For many educators, however, competing priorities, unclear direction, and fragmented practices are the reality. Teams often feel stuck rather than aligned.

Creating a shared vision can seem impossibly complex, but it is within this complexity that the possibility for more engaging and meaningful teaching emerges.

 

Coming together to develop a unified, transformative pedagogy requires courage. When educators build trust and shape a collective purpose, they create the conditions for bold thinking, genuine collaboration, and a culture where every child can thrive.

 

In Finding Our Way: Developing a Shared Pedagogy, educators Fiona Zinn and Anne van Dam offer a practical and thought-provoking resource for professional learning communities. The book presents a constellation of strategies and provocations that support shared reflection, dialogue, and intentional pedagogical mapping. Its practical tools equip educators to navigate the evolving landscape of early childhood education. Using these insights and reflection prompts, teams can build a collectively personalized approach that is intentionally adaptive, politically conscious, and grounded in joyful curiosity.

 

Affirming the complexity of teaching and learning, Finding Our Way equips and encourages educators to navigate pathways toward more meaningful learning-together.

 

Here's what you'll find inside:

- Invitations for reflection and collaborative dialogue

- Ways to make space for educators' and children's voices

- Stories from lived practice in diverse early learning communities

- Questions to support ongoing, shared professional inquiry

 

How can diverse teams develop a meaningful and unified teaching approach?

How do you establish a culture shaped by shared purpose that honors individual perspectives and promotes curiosity?

 

Discover the strategies in Finding Our Way.

Entertaining, imformative, important and compassionate
Format: Hardcover
I bought this book thinking (1), it'll be easy to consume, (2) I'll learn something about Canadian culture, (3) it'll at some point shed a light on the environmental harms that oil drilling causes, and (4) there'll be a redeeming ending. I was right about (2) and (3). Easy to consume? Not as easy as I thought and whether or not the ending is redeeming, the author Beaton leaves to the reader to determine. It is autobiographical based on the author's experiences, and she does go on after her experiences to become a renowned author/cartoonist. However, one questions whether these experiences, that were part of her path to get there, justify the means, and there is no overarching message that wraps everything up neatly "in a bow". This book was even more important that I anticipated it to be and while it does speak to certain aspects of Canadian culture (mostly regional), the lessons can be applied beyond that context. My favorite aspects of the book were that it addressed difficult topics with humanity and compassion and even though this topics are intellectually and emotionally difficult, the medium is easier to consumer than perhaps other mediums. Highly recommend.

Compelling - Beautifully done
Format: Kindle
I was surprised how much I enjoyed reading this. Ms Beaton has done an amazing job of storytelling. So thankful for the recommendation from John Warner - The “BibliOracle” of the Chicago Tribune. Several male members of my family worked in the Tar Sands projects over the last 30 years - mostly on Oil Exploration and the crew management side. But rumors about the rough environment were confirmed in this book. Reading this explains why one important family marriage failed from the “Wild West” behavior that took place there. As Ms Beaton acknowledged, this work provided important income for those who worked the Tar Sands projects. My family included. But the harm to the First Nations People and the environment are just terribly, horribly sad.

A human story of how our society operates
Format: Kindle
There's a lot of terms you could use to describe the themes in this book. Capitalism, patriarchy, settler-colonialism, climate change but the book doesn't need to throw these terms around. It just shows them through the eyes of a person who experienced them. There's also a feeling of "there but by the grace of god go I" having been tempted by the possibility of oil work myself during the Great Recession. The story of how our drive for oil eats at our humanity is vital and helps show the cost of how we've structured our society at a personal level. At times funny, heartwarming, and tragic, a fantastically written and drawn work that I have to highly recommend!
