Educators, as researchers, co-plan with children by involving them in the decision making process to have shared input over the direction of their learning. As co-learners, Educators actively engage in learning with children while supporting them to explore their world with their body, mind and senses. As Educators ask children questions, they learn how to further enhance children’s interests and curiosities by expanding and scaffolding their ideas and creative learning.
