One of the strategies the students are learning in our Language Arts unit is questioning. As we read text we are getting past the surface level questions and trying to dig deeper into questioning that requires us to think a little harder. While we are learning this new strategy, students are also finding out not to guess as a response, and instead go back into the text to research the appropriate answer. They are doing awesome!
Together we came up with an anchor chart of words that could start off really great questions. So then we got into the holiday season and used Stellaluna to practice. As one of their center work tasks, students were able to listen to the story. Then they had to individually, or as a group, develop deeper questions from the book. You can see the growth in their questioning!
Looking forward to doing this again.
