It discusses teachers’ behaviours on how to respond to children’s learning that will challenge them further in their practices. The online workshops conducted between August and September 2020 welcomed beyond 400 attendees over the three sessions as we delved deep into the art of asking questions to provoke children’s curiosity.

Children continually theorise and question to construct meaning and make sense of the world. How do we organize learning around children’s questions and theories?

The second workshop began with the participants sharing a provocation they implemented in their classroom after the discussion in the first workshop. Thereafter, we examined theories, questions and the role of listening. The group also discussed Topics and Concepts, Emergent Curriculum and pedagogical documentation.
