  In A Place for Wonder, Georgia Heard and Jennifer McDonough share how to create “a landscape of wonder,” an elementary classroom where curiosity, creativity, and exploration are encouraged. For it is these characteristics, the authors write, that develop intelligent, inquiring, life-long learners. But in a time of increasing standardization and mandated curriculum, what spaces still remain in schools for children’s ideas, questions and curiosity? The first edition of the best-selling A Place for Wonder introduced readers to a set of small, but powerful practices that opened up endless possibilities for children’s creativity and curiosity in the classroom. Now, in this second edition, Heard and McDonough expand and update their ideas across the elementary curriculum, sharing engaging and accessible ways to bring wonder to every part of the school day. In this book teachers will learn strategies for teaching in ways that align with both the standards and curriculum we teach and center children’s questions and creativity. The authors share powerful and practical examples for doing this work in classrooms including: Setting up wonder centers, discovery tables, and observation windows to engage children from the moment they walk into the classroom each morning Centering children’s curiosity in writing through wonder journals, wonder poems, wonder book clubs, and nonfiction wonder writing Using outdoor spaces to create simple, but engaging connections with nature including the one small square activity and listening walks Connecting with families and the community to support inquiry and curiosity in the classroom and beyond In this second edition, Heard and McDonough expand their focus from nonfiction reading and writing to include practical, engaging and inspiring ways teachers can center curiosity and wonder in the areas of science, social studies, math, and social emotional learning. A Place for Wonder will help teachers reclaim their classrooms as a place where true learning is the norm.
