The added tool of the KWHLAQ chart appealed to me and my sense of organization. Imagine, you can learn and research about anything that interests you. Only catch? You have to share what you learned with everyone at the end of the designated time. Huh……tempting and scary, isn’t it? So, I put my money where my mouth was. I consistently tell those around me to get out of their comfort zone. Try something new and that it is okay to fail. It was time for me to do it too. I wrote up my plans for a “Free to Learn” approach with second graders.
