Why is it important to wonder?
Explorer Class
Explorer students are practicing active listening and sharing their
ideas about our first read aloud book, The Wheel in the School by Meindert DeJong. Observing students track the conversation, and provide ideas afterwards about what we can work on as a group to continue to have good discussions. One discussion group excelled in using names, and another group excelled in making efficient decisions about which questions to explore. Because the plot of the story is driven by the wondering of students in the book, one question we discussed was "Why is it important to wonder?"
