It also guides them to develop questions about things they are curious about and want to know before they begin the research process. In this activity, the teacher and school librarian meet to discuss an upcoming unit of study or research. They identify key ideas, themes, and questions that might arise in the unit. They then identify a primary source (an object, document, map, or image) that will be used to introduce the unit using the See, Think, Wonder method (Fontichiaro 2010). The focus of the activity is to elicit what students already know through a series of three scaffolded questions of increasing difficulty. Three versions of this activity, for various age groups, are described. Each uses the See, Think, Wonder method for discussion of primary sources. |
