Useful Strategies
I believe this article is useful for science teachers. The author discusses capitalizing on children's natural curiosity and questioning nature. The author states, "the goal of this article is to consider ways teachers can highlight the practice of asking questions and defining problems within grades 3–5 by making minor adjustments to lessons that have a big impact on encouraging question development." Essentially, the article provides useful tools and specific strategies for teacher to use. I like that the article provides a model of how to implement the questioning strategies using natural disasters. Many articles lack the connection between theory and practice but this article gives a model/example.
These strategies can be applied into the classroom by simply adjusting parts of the lesson plan. I believe this type of instruction will become "second-nature" for many teachers who will or already do implement these strategies. These 2 tips can also be adjusted to meet many standards across the curriculum with minor adjustments.
