Our kindergarteners are diving into the Question Formulation Technique, a Harvard-researched approach that empowers them to ask better questions and grow as curious, self-directed learners! 
Learning this skill early builds confidence, strengthens critical thinking, and shows children their questions matter, helping them grow into engaged, independent thinkers.
