Barbara Braams (VU): The big Hoe?Zo! Show questions book a book to involve children in science and teach them scientific skills
Children are naturally curious and ask a lot of questions. ‘Why do fish have scales and people don’t?’ ‘Why is it warm during summer and cold during winter?’ Unfortunately, not all children grow up in an environment where this curiosity is fostered. The big Hoe?Zo! Show questions book aims to provide every primary school in the Netherlands with 50 most inspiring questions asked by real children. The book uses these questions to teach children about the scientific cycle and the excitement of discovery. The big Hoe?Zo! Show questions book raises more questions than it answers, and helps nurture a generation that embraces curiosity and never stops asking, “Hoe? Zo!”?
