Mentorship

Today I sat down with my headmaster and talked about my unit plan. I was mostly interested in how the PYP plans looked at other international schools, and we started going through my plan together. When we got to the provocations section, I asked what he did, and he said that he used to ask questions of each of the Key Concepts.

That got me thinking about how we read about effective questioning. When I went through the key concepts and came up with questions for each, I could see how these questions could drive my unit.

I wish I had discovered this sooner.
