In this presentation we analyze the meaning and importance of dialogue in the educational process, as well as the necessity of the participation of all children in it. We present specific strategies for enhancing children's participation in dialogue, as well as relevant examples and exercises. The principles, conditions and strategies for enhancing children's participation are summarized in the tool for planning children's participation in the dialogue which contains helpful axes and examples.
