There is always discussion in my classroom. After all, students learn from one another. We talk about what they have learned, and I try to answer their questions. I admit, sometimes they stump me! Many times I say to my students, "That's a really great question! Let's research that answer." Then we discuss how to find the answers. Students mostly want to look online! But I don't always allow this. They look in their science books and other scientific/ student-friendly books that I have in my class library. Even if they can't always find the answers, I truly hope that our discussions help them love the process of learning and researching, and digging deeper for answers.
PLEASE leave me a comment below and let me know what you do to engage all of your students! One reason I started this blog is to collaborate with teachers all over the world to gain insight so I can continue to learn and grow as an educator!
See you next week!
