Friday we started our module on Ancient Asian Civilizations. To introduce this module, I did a KWL chart with each of my classes. What is a KWL chart you ask? Well, KWL is an acronym for the following...
K = What I KNOW
W = What I WANT to know
L = What I LEARNED
It was really fun to see just how similar and different my two classes were. Some of their responses for what they already knew about Asia where too funny. Especially when one of my students said, "Mrs. Kearson, I know that all of the things we buy are made in China... China makes all our stuff for us". I also loved how my homeroom class wanted to know if Asia had beaches. Adorable!
Here are the KWL charts I made with each of my classes.
Once we finished our whole group KWL chart, the students wrote out three things on their own KWL chart that they already knew and wanted to know. After we have read several of our stories on Ancient Asian Civilizations, we will add what we learned. FUN!
