Communities
“Who we are together is different from and more than who we are alone…Not just a summing-up, but a different entity with different resources that become visible and available. From this coming together we grow into the shared identity of a community that learns.”
—Woolf, 2015
Welcome to Wyoming’s early childhood community! We want to provide the opportunity for early childhood professionals across the state to learn together, connect with each other, and support one another by sharing our wisdom, curiosities, and expertise. Learning communities are just that! Sometimes referred to as a community of practice, a learning community is a chance for groups of people who share a common identity, passion, or concern to meet regularly to have focused dialogue, reflect on their practice, share ideas, and encourage one another. Join a community now >
Learning communities will meet over Zoom regularly, every 6-8 weeks.
