The Curious Classroom [Audiobook]

Curious about inquiry? Hundreds of thousands of elementary teachers are. Smokey Daniels travels the country supporting well-planned and organized inquiry teaching.

The Curious Classroom shares a ladder of 10 inquiry structures. Begin with briefly modeling your own curiosity or start on a higher rung as you gradually move toward units driven by kids' own questions.

Ever wonder how to get students genuinely engaged in your curriculum or wish you could let them explore those amazing questions with which they brim? If so, Smokey provides research-based suggestions that help cover the curriculum by connecting what kids wonder about to the wonders you have to teach them. He shares 10 structures, 34 inspiring models from teachers nationwide, and examples of students' work, plus specific suggestions for assessment and grading.
