Culture of Inquiry
November 12, 2018
Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.
-William Butler Yeats

“A culture of inquiry encompasses the full gamut of how we live together, the many daily expressions of our vision for who we want to be and the values by which we want to live. More than an organizing principle for staff meetings and curriculum planning, a culture of inquiry comprises the way we think about our use of space and time, the way we approach the rhythms of classroom life, the way we align budgets, the way we organize administrative roles and responsibilities, the way we orient our relationships with families,” explain Ann Pelo and Margie Carter in their thoughtful new book, From Teaching to Thinking.

“A culture of inquiry is integrated into the fullness of our days together, not set apart as ‘professional development,’ but acting as the overarching and defining way that we live together throughout all aspects of our program.”
