Social Studies Network 4 years, 7 months agoI found this web resource with TONS of questioning strategies…also contains support materials for the Question Formulation Technique (QFT). More appropriate for Middle and High SS Teachers/Students.

Thank you soooo much for posting this link. The PDFs, PowerPoints, templates, etc. are going to be very useful as I try better questioning strategies with my students. I’m definitely going to share this link with Mrs. Burch!
