A1: curiosity DRIVES student learning. Esp with little ones, we feed off their natural curiosity to introduce all topics #NoVAedchat

Hey Courtney! Glad you're here! #NOVAedchat @MsBradshawWMES

Q2 How might we balance the standards we must teach and the things students are interested in beyond the standards? #NOVAedchat

pkoch9999 Sep 20 @ 8:15 PM EDT

Allowing student choice in project topic, writing subject, reading material creates Ss ownership. #NoVAedchat

A1:IMO the impact is that it changes everything. When we can get kids curious about a topic, it's instant buy in and engagement #NoVAedchat

acuteteacher Sep 20 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2 in elem school so much about inquiry can be fit beautifully into language arts workshop - just ask @misshanrahan5th #novaedchat

mafarrace Sep 20 @ 8:15 PM EDT

So my lame question.... where did everyone find question #1?? I didn't see it anywhere. Um, 'cause I'm 'tired'? #NoVAedchat

pkoch9999 Sep 20 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A1 Allowing student choice in project topic, writing subject, reading material creates Ss ownership. #NOVAedchat

ProfeTravis Sep 20 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A2.1: we're 🍀 in world Lang- standards are communication around themes. So easy to ditch the text and go "rogue" #novaedchat

RavenAngelica Sep 20 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A1 Wondering is the bedrock of engagement. #novaedchat

TechyMargaret - Moderator Sep 20 @ 8:17 PM EDT

A2 build in choice! When developing & practicing skills, topic choice is key! Also helps S see common interests with Ts & peers #novaedchat

witmanedu Sep 20 @ 8:17 PM EDT

A2: The balancing act comes down to breaking down standards to the skills being taught & teaching those skills thru Ss interests #NoVAedchat

A2.2- I love being able to build my own curriculum in AP and go where the Ss interests lie #novaedchat

BrianHerb17 Sep 20 @ 8:17 PM EDT

A2 we've GOT to save time to go beyond the standards, time to explore and see where curiosity takes us! #NoVAedchat

pkoch9999 Sep 20 @ 8:18 PM EDT

A2 - skill based activities help. Ss can choose subject matter, Ts can assess skills #NOVAedchat

TechyMargaret - Moderator Sep 20 @ 8:18 PM EDT

A2 I think we can focus on the skills our students need (that are in our standards) & use those to learn about their interests!! #Novaedchat

jcjITRT51 Sep 20 @ 8:18 PM EDT

A2: You can balance the standards and the interest by making an authentic, real world problem that they need to solve. #PBL #NoVAedchat

misshanrahan5th Sep 20 @ 8:19 PM EDT

A1 curiosity and interest cause students to become passionate advocates, check out all that my Ss advocated for last year #NoVAedchat

BrianHerb17 Sep 20 @ 8:19 PM EDT

A2 those are the lessons I remember most from school. #NoVAedchat

misshanrahan5th Sep 20 @ 8:20 PM EDT

A2 inquiry is a choice during my reading workshop but can be structured in so many ways to fit in other times/other subjects #novaedchat

witmanedu Sep 20 @ 8:20 PM EDT

100% agreed! When we take it further with kids, they see learning for more than just memorizing and tests #novaedchat

Grad school on a Wednesday night is NOT CONDUCIVE to twitter chats but you know how I feel about inquiry #NoVAedchat

In reply to @acuteteacher

jcjITRT51 Sep 20 @ 8:21 PM EDT

This is so true. The standards are the basics the kids need to know. We need to take them beyond the basics. #NoVaedchat

In my experience, this works even better when the Ss are choosing the problem to solve! #NoVAedchat

In reply to @jcjITRT51

RavenAngelica Sep 20 @ 8:21 PM EDT

A2 The workshop model in reading and writing create space for choice; allowing Ts to unstandardize the standards. #novaedchat

Oh also!!! Sarah G5 t and I'm curious about emergent literacy (thx a lot grad school) #novaedchat

witmanedu Sep 20 @ 8:24 PM EDT

YES! I was just talking about the fact that we NEED to show kids that learning is beyond just memorizing and test! #novaedchat

In reply to @mafarrace

BrianHerb17 Sep 20 @ 8:24 PM EDT

And if it's dry and distant, we need to make it exciting and personal #novaedchat

In reply to @mafarrace

NoVAEdChat Sep 20 @ 8:25 PM EDT

Q3 What can we do to encourage students to pursue their natural curiosity? What have you done that worked? #NoVAedchat

mafarrace Sep 20 @ 8:25 PM EDT

I really got into those this summer w/curr dev & wish we used them more. BETTER than standards! #NoVAedchat

In reply to @TechyMargaret

scigates Sep 20 @ 8:26 PM EDT

A2: We must give Ss time to wonder, they are so worried about the "right" answer, they have been so conditioned. #NoVAedchat

ProfeTravis Sep 20 @ 8:26 PM EDT

Yes! I don't do a ton of hw but my AP kids must seek out material in the language that they're into! No limits, just SPANISH! #novaedchat

In reply to @acuteteacher, @woodleyhillses

TechyMargaret - Moderator Sep 20 @ 8:26 PM EDT

This made my day yesterday - how easy to reflect using @padlet or @Flipgrid on how they're developing POG skills #NoVAedchat @mafarrace

Mrs_Ziab Sep 19 @ 6:24 PM EDT

❤ this idea but for portrait of a graduate...Each S can have their own reflection @padlet & decide which trait was a strength for the day! 💪

acuteteacher Sep 20 @ 8:26 PM EDT

A3 encourage any & all Qs, model our own curiosity & what we do to address it, find time to talk! #NoVaedchat

TechyMargaret - Moderator Sep 20 @ 8:27 PM EDT

A3 Encourage "I wonder" and see where it leads! Build in discussion and time to answer Qs. Practice writing good essential Qs #novaedchat

scigates Sep 20 @ 8:27 PM EDT

A2.2 that is what scientists do, wonder about the world and creatively think about solving problems #NoVAedchat

jcjITRT51 Sep 20 @ 8:28 PM EDT

A3: We can encourage Ss to pursue their curiosity by allowing them time to research an idea of their own while Ts facilitate #novaedchat

misshanrahan5th Sep 20 @ 8:28 PM EDT

data. Allow them to share their findings #novaedchat

ProfeTravis Sep 20 @ 8:28 PM EDT

A3- open ended projects in PBL! Just had a talk with @CHS_writer today about Ss choice of product and material! #novaedchat

misshanrahan5th Sep 20 @ 8:28 PM EDT

A3 also make wondering visible and give Ss time to share #novaedchat

coreythornblad Sep 20 @ 8:28 PM EDT

A3: Essential Questions that connect to student life are well, essential, to authentic inquiry. It must be relevant to kids. #NoVaedchat

mafarrace Sep 20 @ 8:28 PM EDT

I guess, but education has been dry & distant since the 1900's- forgot guy's name that said it would be good. So wrong. #NoVAedchat

A3 I provide a portion of time for Ss to share and discuss wonderings during our weekly class meeting #novaedchat

BrianHerb17 Sep 20 @ 8:29 PM EDT

A3 Choice is so important. Kids are natural explorers. We need to give them the space to do what they do best! #novaedchat

witmanedu Sep 20 @ 8:29 PM EDT

So I already had planned on working on discussion techniques and accountable talk this year so it kind of lends itself to that. #NoVAedchat

Q4: What challenges does inquiry and planning for student discovery bring to your classroom or school? #NoVAedchat

That is so true. The best thing with it is that they retain the information. Not just memorize facts and regurgitate. #NoVaedchat

A3: Modeling my own curiosity has worked really well in the past especially with think-alouds and "I wonder" statements #NoVAedchat

In reply to @witmanedu, @highleyjane, @Flipgrid, @pgcps

TechyMargaret - Moderator Sep 20 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A4 I think it can be scary for some Ts to allow Ss to choose topics.Also, takes time to ensure Ss write strong essential Qs #NoVAedchat

Mrs_Ziab Sep 20 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A4 It is definitely difficult for Ts to let go control of the classroom so that Ss can take ownership of their learning! #NoVAedchat

TechyMargaret - Moderator Sep 20 @ 8:37 PM EDT

One of my fave S comments ever was from @MCKeatingCHS's Ss: S said she learned HOW to learn that year.. isnt that what we want? #novaedchat

Mrs_Ziab Sep 20 @ 8:37 PM EDT

And to help Ts understand that it doesn't mean let the Ss RUN the classroom amok but merely let them make choices & have voices! #NoVAedchat

A5 I get the best ideas from partners in other depts. We all get stuck in a rut sometimes and a different perspective helps! #NoVAedchat
