@LightUpLiteracy A4: I would have to agree with @YaggieKinders and that first graders also have a genuine curiosity for non-fiction topics. They seem to resort to the same favorites so I like the NF book-a-day idea to kick off non-fiction texts!

A2: I want to try Skype or virtual field trips. I think these experiences would encourage/initiate curiosity and wonder. #wonder302

[Erica Anklam @LearnwAnklam]

A2: I currently have an observation table in my classroom with photos and videos. I don’t always include objects but should because they’re more appealing to the ss. #wonder302

@LightUpLiteracy @BurtonKinders I currently have an observation table (credit to @mariapwalther) and find different topics weekly for ss to ask wonders about and try to find answers. #wonder302

[Erica Anklam @LearnwAnklam]

@LightUpLiteracy I wonder how much toddlers dream and what they dream about. #wonder302
