The Curious Classroom: 10 Structures for Teaching with Student-Directed Inquiry
By Harvey "Smokey" Daniels
Heinemann, 2017
Genre: Professional Text
If you are looking for a fun, easy read about how to incorporate inquiry into the classroom…then this is the book for you! Teachers struggle with the questions “Where do I find the time for inquiry?” or “How can I fit inquiry into the schedule?” everyday! Smokey Daniels provides 10 Inquiry Structures and examples that can be used within the classroom. They are quick and not time consuming! I personally loved the strategies that were presented in Chapter 4 and how to begin the day with Soft Starts! I immediately started implementing a few of the Soft Start ideas after reading this book and now my kids look forward to our morning inquiry! I highly recommend this book and I think your students will thank you for checking it out!
