You never have to teach children how to ask, “Why?” Even before they articulate the word, children ask this question. How might we mobilize children’s innate curiosities and wonderings as a vehicle for learning? Project approaches to learning use children’s inquiries to engage in long-term investigations over time. It places the child and the teacher side-by-side as researchers. Content and subject matter get folded into the process seamlessly and authentically. Instead of spending your time motivating children, use their existing motivations and wonderings in the project approach!
