The teacher poses interesting questions to help the children reflect on what was done and what could be done during this investigation of mixing colors. Here are a few comments of note: Child – “Look while it’s mixing; it does this kinda ….” (She does not provide a word here.)Teacher – “Interesting, it makes a little …” (Teacher pauses in hopes that the child will provide a phrase, such as “cloudy stuff”.) But the child does not offer her description, so the teacher moves on to ask, “And does that go away?” Her question is a provocation for the child to think about why the cloudy look goes away.
