Lesson 2: Analyze an Inquiry Based Lesson Plan
Analyze: Linked is a great resource that provides full lesson plans for grades k-12 on how to use inquiry based learning in the classroom. This site provides a lesson plan with standards, a teacher and student slideshow, and teaching tips for the teacher. Please view at least one lesson that you feel like might fit in with your classroom.
While examining these lesson plans, think about the following:
- How does this look like what I do in my classroom currently? How does it look different?
- Does this fit my current standards?
- Does this align with my teaching philosophy?
- What aspects of this lesson plan make it “inquiry based?”
