I like the way you phrased this "time to sit in the unkown"---kids don't always have to be "doing" every second of a class. We all need space to think.

[ClaudiaSnowberMarini @marinimadness]

I feel the more ways students show learning (writing, listening, and talking etc.) absolutely helps students remember.

[ClaudiaSnowberMarini @marinimadness]

I completely agree. It is very satisfying when students dive deeper than the text and truly question a character.

A6: If students are curious, then they will naturally be drawn into learning. Wasn't it Einstein that said he was 'only passionately curious.' #curiositymatters2FMSD

[ClaudiaSnowberMarini @marinimadness]

A5: We can better engage students by creating lessons that are relevant and have authentic depth. #curiositymatters2FMSD

[ClaudiaSnowberMarini @marinimadness]

A4: Actually performing through hands-on learning truly helps my students remember. If we just watch a play or talk about a play there is only a surface level of understanding, but by performing and applying acting concepts they retain much more. #curiositymatters2FMSD

[ClaudiaSnowberMarini @marinimadness]

A3: Questions rooted in real world scenarios generally spark greater curiosity in my classroom. #curiositymatters2FMSD

[ClaudiaSnowberMarini @marinimadness]

A2: Socratic seminar appears effective because it allows for a more balanced participation from the class as a whole versus a handful of students dominating a discussion. #curiositymatters2FMSD

[ClaudiaSnowberMarini @marinimadness]

A1: Guided inquiry- many of my students are new to theatre. I could move to the next level, free inquiry with some different expectations for what student outcomes could/would look like, especially in a performance art. #curiositymatters2FMSD

[ClaudiaSnowberMarini @marinimadness]

A2: I could use a children's picture book for beginner actors. Having them act out the story makes acting less intimidating, more concrete, and brings out joy from childhood past. #FMSDwrites2learn

[ClaudiaSnowberMarini @marinimadness]

Great strategy, I could use this too! 😀

[ClaudiaSnowberMarini @marinimadness]

A1: I would like to incorporate an authentic writing strategy where students write movie reviews to a local newspaper commenting on the actors character portrayal. #FMSDwrites2learn
