Recently I collaborated with colleague and author of Leading with a Lens of Inquiry Jessica Vance on a resource to help cultivate moves, decisions, and responses in schools that are founded in curiosity. In our work with schools supporting them in implementing inquiry, curiosity is of critical importance. We often say that if we want curious kids, we need curious adults. In the face of the many decisions teachers make in a given day, we sat down and thought about how we could create some reflective space to make decisions rooted in curiosity.

With this in mind, have a look at the Planning with Learner Curiosity in Mind Flowchart. The prompts are designed to help you pause, reflect, and move forward in your work with soft steps of curiosity, invitation, and intention. Consider downloading it and keeping it close-by as you plan for learning and reflect on your school context. We would love to hear how this goes so please comment below or tag us in you socials.

Enjoy!
