SUMMARY:Inspiring Curiosity to Play: Creating Provocations and Invitations to Play!
DESCRIPTION:ONLINE Community Webinar\nInspiring Curiosity to Play: Creating Provocations and Invitations to Play! \nHow do we create an environment that extends on children’s natural curiosity and interests in the classroom? How can we introduce new ideas\, based on our observations and our understanding of possibilities for children? What activities can we do that promote play? Rooted in the emergent curriculum approach\, creating provocations and invitations are a part of how we can build an environment that stimulates curiosity\, exploration and encourage independent divergent and critical thinking. Instead of providing activities that focus on specific outcomes or learning skills\, we provide provocations to stimulate a wholistic approach to playful learning. In doing so\, we need to be responsive to the children’s interests\, extend their learning and inspire curiosity to explore. Learn how to showcase these amazing displays and invite deep thinking and deep play to stimulate and build upon your children’s interests and sense of wonder. \nOverview \n\nDefining Provocations to Play\nFoundations to Provocations\nInspirations for Provocations\n\nThings to Keep in Mind: \n\nRegistration closes 24 hours in advance!\nPD funding available to eligible participants.\nThis workshop will be held online through the Zoom platform.\nYou will need access to a smartphone\, laptop\, tablet or computer with audio capabilities to join us.\nA link will be emailed to you 24 hours prior to the workshop.
