Community Exploration
Sign up below to help us make bagels in exploration time next week, if you like.
Another half group of kids went to Elly's Market on DeKalb. Our host there, Minji, was very gracious but answered the children's questions about where foods come from on a very surface level - "factories and farms." Wouldn't it be nice if our kids didn't nod appreciatively at such an answer? If instead, they asked, "Where are the factories? Where are the farms?"
What can we do as adults to help our six and seven-year olds ask probing followup questions? Remember when they asked "Why? Why? Why? Why?" as kindergarteners. Do they still do that enough? Can we facilitate it more?
Thank You
