The inquiry notebooking team met with the Hutchinson staff Wednesday morning.
We began our meeting looking at how they have begun to build a foundation for their inquiry classroom. We did this through a Schoology discussion. Check out the conversation here.
We moved into thinking about how Writing to Learn can be used a foundation for using science and social studies notebooks effectively. We looked at some resources from the CALI and support documents. You can find them under the Notebook resources in our Schoology group.
Next, grade-level teams and bands met together to answer some questions about Writing to Learn. Here are the charts that were developed:
Kindergarten and First Grade |
Second Grade |
Third Grade |
Fourth Grade |
Fifth and Sixth Grades |
Teachers determined next steps and made a plan on a sticky note. Here is a collection of the words teachers used:
Thank you Hutchinson teachers for the thoughtful conversations.
We look forward to our continued partnership!
