Hi all teacher friends...
Its PD time here in the hot sunny southern hemisphere
two more days to learn,share,and absorb all about our
development unit which this new year is Inquiry.
After a day of fun and moving around activities we all have come
to an essential agreement that all children are natural-born
inquiriers. So we have practically no new things to teach them
about. But we can be facilitators in thier personal or group inquiries
and guide them, helping them to stay focused and on track.
Teachers shared an Inquirer model person in their lives and sketched
a place from childhood that made inquiries fun and easy.
Tommorrows homework: something, a personal object
that symbolized Inquiry to us. That is something that I really
dont know what will be. Books are to me the most powerful
representations of inquiries, and nowadays I cant deny or hide
the fact that my iphone is becoming a most meaningful symbol
of the power of inquiry in me.
