Building on children’s natural curiosity is key. Children explore and discover to make sense of their world around them.
I just love this resource! It is a must have foundation- building children’s understanding of the world through environmental inquiry.
I love this quote, “That moment where the learning lives.”
Being a careful observer and listener and paying attention to children’s questions is an effective way to begin an inquiry. The role of teacher is not as expert but one as teacher as facilitator. Scaffolding children’s learning helps children to feel successful as learners.
This resource is so well laid out, it will assist you in building
a great foundation to your many questions around inquiry-based learning.
Nurturing a sense of wonder is a gift to last a lifetime. The joy, excitement, and mystery of the world we live in provides many
opportunities for children to genuinely investigate their own questions about the world. CURIOSITY IS CULTIVATED!
