Provocations are very different to invitations to learning (our continuous provision activities) as they offer an opened approach to a child’s question or interest. 
These would be great to be able to set up in small spaces within the environment following on from a child’s question or statement. 
Please do watch as I have paid for this course myself as I found it so useful. ]]> 2021-08-14 06:16:09 UTC https://padlet.com/ChelseyAllen/84vedzxe6dtvzybs/wish/1678877648
