I feel that there is a good marriage between the QFT and the Guiding Questions from High-Impact Instruction training.
I used a photograph as my QFocus to introduce a unit on World War I, which can be found at the following link: http://web.viu.ca/davies/h482.wwi/photo.WWI.Br.machinegunners.1916.jpg
This is hard to read but it is simply 3 stanza of “America the Beautiful” and a piece of info about when and how the song was published.
It was facilitated in different ways, small group, individual, and whole group. Whole group worked best with this Q focus.
Students’ questions related to all Social Studies Big Ideas related to the United States.
