Children are naturally curious about the world around them.  When they ask questions and investigate what they are wondering about, they are engaged in meaningful learning. 

The children were given trays of different sea shells as a provocation.  They began to ask questions about the sea shells; “What creatures live inside a shell?  Do sea shells grow?  Can you really hear the ocean in a sea shell?”  We talked about where we could find the answers to their questions and we did some research.
