and questioning (Bloom’s Taxonomy and ELD)

Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The
important thing is not to stop questioning.
~ Albert Einstein
What are Cues and Questions?Cues
involve “hints” about what students are about to experience.
Cueing and questioning
might account for as much as 80 percent of what occurs in a given classroom on a given day. (see Davis, O.L., & Tinsley, 1967;
Fillippone, 1998)
Did you ever stop to think, and
forget to start again?
~Winnie the Pooh
Purpose of Cues and Questions
Activate background knowledge
Prepare students to expect new information
Set learning objectivesAssess learning
The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality.
~Albert Einstein
