Ask About It

Gathering Information #13

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a tool for students to simultaneously record new information and articulate any questions they may have about a topic. It is divided into two columns: one labeled “New Information” and the other “Questions I Have.” Each column contains several blank boxes for students to fill in as they learn and inquire, allowing for a side-by-side documentation of facts and curiosities. The layout supports an interactive learning process where gaining knowledge and questioning go hand in hand.

The worksheet is crafted to encourage students to be inquisitive while they learn, fostering a balance between information acquisition and the development of critical thinking skills. It teaches them to actively seek knowledge while also pondering further about the subject matter. By having students write down their questions next to the new information, it also prompts them to consider what they don’t understand or what they wish to explore more deeply. This method promotes a more engaged and reflective learning experience.
