The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
Bēhere is pioneering a homeschool revolution, one where parents can still outsource for some group-based learning to a caring team that prioritizes the emotional wellness of the child above all else. At Bēhere, we honor the whole child; our outdoor program is a wonderful way for children to learn and forge friendships as part of their home school study. We focus on social, emotional, cognitive, and physical skills and weave in some language arts, math, and engineering through group journaling, exploration, loose parts projects, arts/crafts and handwork. We cultivate emotional intelligence, confidence, gratitude, empathy, and consideration woven into nature-based stories (oral and written) and learning games and activities.
This position is for a Lead Guide who will be supported by 1-2 Jr. Guides/ Volunteers and will lead a class of 12-18 homeschooled children ages 5-10 (majority ages 6-9) in a 100% outdoor environment.
The Lead Guide works closely with the Founder and Jr. Guides to lesson plan a thematic overview structure for the session and executes deeper detailed lesson plans per class. Tasks include thoughtful curriculum design based on Waldorf, Forest School and SEL Inspired resources and most importantly, include the ongoing examination of the children’s interests and personalities. The Lead Guide will manage and support Jr Guide staff and/or volunteers as needed. Lead Guides set the tone for learning as engaged, positive and enthusiastic role models who enjoy learning, children and nature.
This position requires a blend of qualifications that span from knowledge in early childhood education, social-emotional, positive discipline, and nature-based pedagogy. Experience teaching to groups of 10 or more children in a camp or outdoor enrichment setting is ideal versus academic classroom settings, but we welcome all types of “teachers” who have a love of learning and children to be a part of this journey. Academic teaching credentials are not required, but can be a plus as long as the candidate remains flexible and can customize their approach to suit the child(ren) versus trying to force an institutional teaching style into this one-room classroom outdoors. The ideal candidate will possess curiosity, if not deep appreciation for nature and being in the outdoors and have a love for arts and hands-on projects.
