Teacher Inquiry
This page is part of my inquiry into what I can do to improve the literacy level of the students I teach. My plan is to:
Provide vocab activities.
Unpack questions together and talk about alternative interpretations.
Model sentence structure and depth of thinking when writing lesson reflections.
Support students who are struggling to write lesson reflections.
