Early childhood educators and teachers from across the Rainy River district will gather tomorrow in Fort Frances for a workshop focusing on play-based-learning.
It's being led by Lisa Murphy, affectionately known as the Ooey Gooey Lady.
She says it's a concept that has proven results.
"A lot of the tenants that we're talking about are not new," says Murphy. "It's not Lisa Murphy's personal preference. It's actually what our industry history has shown as what is the best most developmentally appropriate way of interacting with this age group."
The workshop comes as the province's introduces play-based learning through its early learning program for four-and-five-year-olds.
