Wonder School is a progressive, bilingual English-Hebrew, Reggio Emilia-inspired early childhood school in Israel focused on child-led learning, inquiry, and community-centered education.
Pedagogical Leadership & Teaching:
Danielle served as pedagogical lead and co-teacher for the school’s 5–6-year-old classroom, supporting curriculum development, classroom documentation, and child-led learning experiences within a multilingual, constructivist environment.
Professional Development & Family Communication:
Danielle developed and led all-staff professional development workshops focused on parent communication, reflective practice, and relationship-centered family engagement strategies.
Conference Presentation & Educational Research:
Danielle represented Wonder School at Play on Athens, an international early childhood education conference, presenting research on how children process crisis through play during periods of war in Israel. The presentation explored constructivist and Reggio Emilia-inspired approaches to supporting children through emotionally complex experiences without censoring play or meaning-making.
