SUMMARY:Working with and creating texts in the early years : an inquiry approach
DESCRIPTION:UNIQUE ONLINE PROFESSIONAL LEARNING OPPORTUNITY\nFirst in a series of 3 online experiences with Kath Murdoch in 2020\n Online workshop through Zoom online platform \nWorking with and creating texts in the early years : an inquiry approach (for educators with an understanding of Inquiry Based Learning – going deeper) \nInquiry classrooms are places where teachers cultivate curiosity and nurture wonder. Inquiry educators help even our youngest learners to think critically\, creatively and reflectively as they investigate and seek to understand the world. Texts (written\, visual\, oral) play a key role in that investigation process. As children inquire they both engage with texts (books\, photos\, objects\, talk\, music) AND create texts as ways to both meaning make and express their understanding. Texts can also be powerful ways to provoke and sustain a journey of inquiry. As children and educators move through the process there are so many\, natural ways we can invite and create texts which helps both deepen conceptual understanding and strengthen literacy skills in a rich\, authentic way. In this interactive\, online workshop\, Kath will share a range of approaches to the authentic weaving of texts into journeys of inquiry. Drawing on over 30 years of experience of embedding inquiry practices into literacy rich classrooms\, Kath will invite participants to share their own strategies and challenges which may include ways to design for such learning opportunities in a remote learning context. Kath will share examples and strategies\, use some virtual collaborative strategies\, provide resources and be available to respond to questions. The texts and techniques shared in this session will help you continue to build a culture that supports meaningful inquiry. \nKath Murdoch | www.kathmurdoch.com.au \nPROGRAM\n\nSession 1: 9:00 am -10.30 (with a 10 minute break)\nSession 2: 11:00 am – 12.30 (with a 10 minute break)\nSession 3 1.30 pm – 2.30 pm\n\nParticipants will need to: \n\nHave downloaded the (free) Zoom platform\nBe prepared to have their video function on (so everyone can be seen)\nSign a declaration that nothing will be recorded and no screen shots taken\nUse a lap top or desk top – not a phone\nBe in their own space (not sharing a device with a colleague)\nManage their own technology\nBe able to access a Google doc that will accompany the workshop and be used to collect and record ideas\nCommit for the day – not just for a session\nParticipants will receive a link and a password prior to the workshop.\n\nParticipants will also receive resources etc\, as you would in a face to face workshop \n
