Identifying Children’s Interests
-
How do I capture children’s interests? What do children already know about a topic of study?
-
How do I easily identify this knowledge?
-
How do I use this information to create a lesson plan?
With topics chosen to engage children’s natural curiosity and sense of wonder, our curriculum also provides you with planning strategies to easily identify children’s interests.
Children approach learning as problem-solvers and investigators; they learn best when they are exploring subjects that interest them.
HighReach Learning provides guidance in how to effectively use the K-W-L (Know, Want to Know, Learned) and R-E-I (Relate, Explore and Expand, Inspire) Methods as a means of encouraging children to take an active role in lesson planning.
