What impact do you expect your children to make on the world, and the world on them, 25 years from now? The 21st century requires changing the stories of teaching and learning. It´s time to rethink education so that we can nurture passionate, critical and creative thinkers, globally competent and empathetic students who are curious, aware and interested in interpreting the world and learning how it works. But where do we start, especially with very young children, ages 1 to 5? During this interactive course we will explore how to build learning environments where thinking is valued, visible and actively promoted, and where cultural forces dance together to create the most powerful thinking and learning experiences. We will also focus on how to foster thinking and understating opportunities through the use of thinking routines and documentation as tools to help students become aware or their thinking moves and make them visible.
Intended Audience: This course is intended for early childhood teachers, elementary teachers, administrators, principals and faculty, and can be presented in English or Spanish.
