鈥淗ow would learning and teaching be different if schools were designed to celebrate and foster inquiry? If teachers were encouraged to hold inquiry at the center of their pedagogy? If assessments helped to nurture inquiry, curiosity, and wonder? If administrators could create contexts for inquiry? If policymakers were its chief advocates? What if our students learned to use writing and reading to inquire? What if they wondered about words and how they work? What if their growing sense of inquiry also empowered them? What if students and teachers, in unleashing their curiosity, also grew their access, agency, power, and impact?鈥�
