Students tend to dread research projects—with their limited
choice of topics, required formats, and minimal opportunity for
original thought. Who can blame them? Cathy Fraser believes that
school research projects should be less like busywork and more like
police investigations. In Love the Questions she describes ways to
engage middle and secondary students from the outset, honoring
their curiosity and passion. Accessible and story filled, this book
provides strategies to capture the excitement of genuine inquiry in
your classroom. Learn how to: embrace inquiry, curiosity, and
exploration; teach students to question; develop authentic projects
that include surveys, experiments, and interviews; partner with
school librarians as educational support for teachers and students;
and assess skills, not memorization. Mini-lessons, practice
activities, graphic organizers, and examples of student work help
you turn research projects into creative, exciting investigations
for your students.
