  1. Using Higher Order Questioning to accelerate Students' growth in reading By: Jori Wilson

  2. Summary Of the Article • Debra S. Peterson and Barbra M. Taylor have • Second and third grade classrooms in Minnesota. • Schools had trouble meeting Adequate Yearly Progress in Reading. • Incorporate higher order questioning into the curriculum to ensure comprehension, depth, and critical thinking

  3. According to Peterson and Taylor (2012), “Higher order questioning requires students to think at a deeper level and to elaborate on their oral and written responses to literature”, (p. 297).

  4. Integrating higher order questioning into the classroom • Vocabulary • Some of the vocabulary include remind, agree, disagree, evidence, support, cite, compare, and contrast. • One can assume that students are aware of all of the vocabulary

  5. Integrating higher order questioning into the classroom • Most teachers will discover that the questions may be challenging • MODELING is a key component!!! • Researchers recommend practice answering/coming up with higher order questions. • A great way to foster higher order questioning is through partner or small group work.

  6. Teachers in Minnesota • Focused on: • theme • character interpretation • prior knowledge • Example: pick a character in the book that is most like you, why is the character most like you and cite examples from the reading. • Results = success • The reading scores constantly grew in the second and third grade classrooms in Minnesota.

  7. Application • Utilize higher order questioning to dig deep into my students’ knowledge. • I will first go over the vocabulary • Then I will model • Engage my students while reading • We as a class will get a better understanding of the text by citing our information found, digging into the underlying theme, getting to know the characters, and applying text to self/prior knowledge.
