    Album Discussion

    I just read a delightful blog post describing the work of pre-K, 1st grade, and 3rd grade teachers using the Question Formulation Technique, with young learners.

    Little Wonderers: Adapting the QFT for Early Learners, by Maame Conduah,  Katy Connolly  ,   Sarah Westbrook  , Dr. Cora Causey and Dr. Amelia Spencer.

     
    I tried using the image in the blog post, but it wouldn't work on this page. Maybe a reader here can suggest a good one!

      Alison Noyes  - That’s such a helpful blog post for using QFT with young learners - who usually have lots of questions!  

    I also appreciate your attempt and request to add an image.  I’m hoping this is what you meant, if not, I had fun doing a search and trying to find a primary source with an image from the past that might closely match that on the blog post.

    What your post pointed out to me (in addition to a good read) was the importance of images when writing a post, and the importance of placing that image “above the fold” so to speak.  In journalism that’s the way you capture readers!

    Thanks so much for sharing this fantastic article   Alison Noyes !
