Jane Mead (Teacher Consultant) has taught out-of-the-classroom and in the classroom in a variety of educational settings. Her first career was with Outward Bound, an international educational organization in which she was immersed in experiential teaching in the wilderness setting. After formally obtaining her B.Ed. with a specialty in ‘Outdoor and Experiential Learning’, she worked at two different Initiative Waldorf schools teaching Kindergarten and grade one. Since she has been with SD46 she has been a Teacher Consultant and Inclusion Support Teacher with Spider, taught in a traditional classroom (Grade 1/2) and with the NEST program (Grades 2-5) both outside of the classroom and in. She is delighted to be back with Spider and is available Mondays to Thursdays. | jmead@sd46.bc.ca |
