Answer to Question 2

ANSWER:
There are co-teachers who are considered facilitators of childrens growth and development and who ask a great many questions of the children in order to guide the process of open discovery. They often do not have degrees and are supported in their work by a pedigogista who has early childhood training. Teachers are considered to be researchers as they discuss and prepare their work with children. They use transcripts of childrens dialogue, and photograph their projects and display them artfully, using documentation as a form of communication. Teachers work very closely with the parents of the children in the school and the members of the school board.
