Curiosity is the spark, but structure fuels the fire. In this interactive session, participants will explore how intentional questioning and collaborative structures can support all learners. We’ll dive into a framework for building and scaffolding questions that promote critical thinking, then practice using student-friendly discussion protocols to increase access and engagement. Strategies such as Think-Pair-Share, Four Corners, and Philosophical Chairs will be modeled and discussed, highlighting how they align with UDL principles and the EL Roadmap by fostering student voice, peer interaction, and multiple means of expression.
