Three New Things

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is created as a tool for students to explore and document their learning about a specific topic or in response to a question. It consists of two sections: the first section asks students to write down what they already know about the subject, and the second, larger section is reserved for them to document three new pieces of information they discover. This layout encourages students to activate their prior knowledge before seeking out new data. The design is simple, facilitating ease of use for a wide range of age groups and learning levels.

The worksheet is designed to teach students the fundamental skills of information gathering and knowledge building. It encourages them to reflect on their existing knowledge before seeking new information, highlighting the continuous nature of learning. By asking for three new things learned, it prompts students to go beyond superficial research, fostering deeper inquiry. The worksheet also serves to make students more aware of their learning process, helping them to become more autonomous and reflective learners.
