- Abstract
Context This project took place in fall 2019 and lasted for seven months in a preschool classroom consisting of a master teacher, teacher and assistants, and 21 children (ages 3-5) within a university-based early childhood education center that serves children from birth through six years old. The teachers continued to research with the children by reading stories, looking at models on the internet, watching videos online, and drawing models for cars. Level 1: A Catalyzing Event With the backdrop described above, the teachers propose a provocation as the catalyzing experience: Build a really fast car! Teachers and children are researchers who ask questions, conduct experiments, observe and collect data, analyze results, and raise new questions (Reggio Children 2010).
