Workshop

  • Thinking Through Quality Questioning: Deepening Student Engagement: With the adoption of more rigorous standards, including the Common Core State Standards, questioning to engage all students in thinking at high levels has become an essential classroom practice. In this session, through facilitator modeling, participants will explore how to best use questioning that leads students to thoughtfully respond, stimulates student questions, and deepens student learning.

    Attendees will be able to:

    • Reflect on the kinds of thinking in which they want students to engage—and the kinds of questions that stimulate these levels of thinking
    • Explore the attributes of questions that engage students in thinking
    • Use questioning strategies to scaffold student thinking to higher levels
