Greetings all! .

We still have spaces available in all workshops.

Presented by Patricia Hunter McGrath

Spend the day investigating light, shadow and transparency with an experienced atelierista as we explore how light tables, overhead projectors and immersive digital environments have been used to support, uncover and develop children’s’ interests and ideas.  Through hands on experiences, provocative questions and co-constructive interactions we will unpack how to move with fluidity between children’s theories, representations and investigations

Why is the light an indispensable tool for the classroom?

What is the role of the adult in facilitating the choice of materials to be used with the light table?

How do we follow children’s ideas through a wide range of light-driven experiences?

What questions do we ask ourselves to support the children’s processes?

How are materials an essential ingredient for collaboration and shared meaning making?

How can the light table become a catalyst for children’s learning?

How is light used to create focused classroom environments?
