Description
During this full day workshop, you will engage in STEM inquiry by exploring air in hands-on, interactive ways. You will learn how early education can support children’s metacognitive development and will uncover how communication, reflection and questioning enhances children’s ability to become confident life-long learners.
The interactive nature of the session will provide the opportunity to experience the effects of prompts and questions on the learner. By the end of this workshop, you will be equipped with tools to support children’s journey of discovery through questioning and collaborative reflection.
This workshop aligns with the principles, practices and outcomes of the EYLF, NQF and the Australian Curriculum.
