How can we help foster curiosity, thinking and a sense of wonder in young children? Embedding inquiry based learning into everyday practice is a great place to start. This two hour session will explore how educators can foster a joy of learning and a sense of awe and wonder in children.
Participants will gain an understanding of what inquiry based learning is, as well as engaging in practical strategies to implement it in everyday practice, including how spaces, resources and materials can be engaged.
NOTE: Teachers in Victoria, QLD, WA, SA, NT, and Tasmania who complete this course will be provided with a certificate and are able to use this course towards their maintenance of Registration requirements.
