Questioning Toolkit

I am constantly struggling with getting my students to engage in class and ask good questions about what they are reading and discussing -- maybe implementing something like this district-wide (or smaller scale in my classroom) would encourage students to know how to ask questions...

A Questioning Toolkit

Each district should create a Questioning Toolkit which contains several dozen kinds of questions and questioning tools. This Questioning Toolkit should be printed in large type on posters which reside on classroom walls close by networked, information-rich computers.

Portions of the Questioning Toolkit should be introduced as early as Kindergarten so that students can bring powerful questioning technologies and techniques with them as they arrive in high school.
