In this engaging professional learning session, educators will explore how intentional questioning can serve as a powerful tool for differentiating instruction for all learners. Participants will examine the role of higher-order questioning in promoting critical thinking, creativity, and depth of understanding. The session will focus on designing and implementing purposeful questioning strategies during whole-group and, more specifically, small-group instruction to meet the diverse needs of learners. Educators will learn how to scaffold and extend thinking through open-ended, layered, and student-driven questions, while also practicing techniques for facilitating meaningful dialogue in small-group settings.

This session is intended for K-12 Teachers.
