There has been a "buzz" in the classroom when students have had opportunities to manipulate materials and choose how they get to their outcomes. Having the students develop questions utilizing the "q-chart" has been helpful to build background knowledge and "wonder" with our inquiry units. apolonsky3 https://padlet.com/dobrien124/4map4gg6t1hp/wish/204587304 ~A Po]]> 2017-11-07 20:49:37 UTC https://padlet.com/dobrien124/4map4gg6t1hp/wish/204587304 Questioning sstarkopf1 https://padlet.com/dobrien124/4map4gg6t1hp/wish/204587436 Students love being able to research the answers to questions that they have created themselves.

This definitely aides in the process of using inquiry based questions for our units. dmartin378 https://padlet.com/dobrien124/4map4gg6t1hp/wish/204587589 2017-11-07 20:50:16 UTC https://padlet.com/dobrien124/4map4gg6t1hp/wish/204587589 I have noticed students taking risks in asking higher level questions and trying to find answers to their questions. https://padlet.com/dobrien124/4map4gg6t1hp/wish/204587696 2017-11-07 20:50:37 UTC https://padlet.com/dobrien124/4map4gg6t1hp/wish/204587696 Renewed Idea jyounan4 https://padlet.com/dobrien124/4map4gg6t1hp/wish/204587866 Inquiry is a model that was used in the past.
