This PLD will be an opportunity to come together to explore the concept of ‘intentional teaching’, breaking down some of the myths that exist by exploring the term, the practices it encompasses, and the opportunities it provides for teacher practice. Teaching in ECE is about more than turning up, and this PLD will provide guidance to support teachers to engage in intentional teaching practices that support them to bring Te Whariki to life every day.
