Questioning Exit Slip

Write for 5 minutes to the following questions on the Teacher page of the wiki space.

Review the Questioning Lesson Plan and makes 2 observations about the questioning techniques used in the plan.

What are some ways to help students develop and ask their own questions? Teach levels of Bloom's and practice writing questions at each level. Use storybook (Verdi) to teach students how to write questions at various levels.

﻿How can effective questions help teachers to scaffold to new learning?

Effective questions will provide formative feedback to guide teaching and review. These types of questions will allow students to develop a deeper understanding of concepts being taught and to connect to initial concepts.

**Writing to Learn Exit Slip** Please respond to the following: 1. How can writing to learn be used as an assessment tool? Writing to learn can be used as a formative assessment tool daily as an Exit ticket. Students demonstrate what they have learned or need to review about concept of the day.

2. How would you use low stakes writing? As an exit ticket. For example: Today students had to write 3 things that they read and discussed in their group on the topic of RNA. During class discussions I can stop to check for understanding and ask students to write a sentence on topic or to answer a specific question developed using Bloom's.

3. Write one question you would ask about what you learned today? When is it best to express to students that a particular writing assignment will be low stakes, non-graded, or not?
