Welcome to our new series on a PYP classroom success criteria. I am so excited for this series, because I feel like it’s been so timely with things I have learned recently from the Pop-Up Studio Edu-Retreat in Brussels with Misty Paterson. In this workshop, Misty took items around the school to create a welcoming gathering place that was flexible and driven by learner use. This made think about this question post by Shailja Datt, the PYP Coordinator at the Horizon Japan International School in Kanagawa:

How do we help in tickling the student’s brain?

What a wonderful way to think about learning, which is more centered on curiosity, wonder, and awe. This episode, we are going to examine how we can tickle our learner’s brains through our school day and within our walls.
