Would you like to learn more about Inquiry-Based Learning? In this workshop, we will demonstrate the multiple ways children learn when their inquiries are sparked by their authentic interests. To do this we will take a deep dive into a project that was ignited by the children’s and our curiosity about bugs and spiders which ignited a long-term investigation. Whether you refer to it as responsive or emergent curriculum or inquiry-based learning, join us to discover how an ordinary moment has the potential to evolve into a long-term project. Presenters: Sue Woodward & Caren Eigenmann Suitable for all early learning and child care professionals.
