But this view is based on a misconception. Philosophy is not a subject but a methodoogy.
This very practical workshop will demonstrate how to create a philosophic classroom and how to embed philosophy within teaching. Yes it’s possible to add four hours of philosophic inquiry into your ‘crowded curriculum.
Half day, full day or tailored to specific Stage levels and specific subject area in Literacy, Mathematics and Science.
