This powerful collection will inspire new and veteran teachers to ""make space"" for children's interests, for teaching as relational and intellectual work, and for new insights and ideas. The authors introduce the Prospect Center's Descriptive Review of Practice, a collaborative inquiry process that provides an opportunity for teachers to examine their practice and gain new perspectives from other participants. The contributors to this volume respond to each child's modes of thinking as they develop curriculum or find ""wiggle room""; in curricula they are given. By demonstrating how it is possible to pursue careful knowledge of craft, this book offers ways of teaching that allow for continuing growth and change.
