      Description

      Unlock the big ideas in your curriculum and unleash your students’ thinking skills with essential questions. Authors of the popular Understanding by Design® framework explain why essential questions help you

      • “Unpack” standards and organize your curriculum around big ideas and core processes.
      • Engage more students in thoughtful inquiry and discussion to promote deeper understanding of content and a culture of inquiry.
      • Signal to students that deep thinking about content is required, not optional.
      • Develop independent learners and foster 21st century skills.

      Offering dozens of examples, the authors explore the usefulness of essential questions in all K–12 content areas, including skill-based areas such as math, PE, language instruction, and arts education. Their guidance and strategies ensure you know how to

      • Identify characteristics that make a question “essential.”
      • Use essential questions to “unpack” standards.
      • Design effective essential questions working from many sources, including standards, desired understandings, and potential student misconceptions.
      • Use essential questions as a focus for daily classroom instruction.
      • Support respectful and meaningful differentiation.
