According to Chapter 5, designing and planning start by the use of essentials questions.
Having that idea clear, organization of classes, units and lessons come later.
If we implement essential questions in our classrooms, it will be easier for our
students to get a clearer understanding our our own lessons, contents and aims.
Essential questions will be beyond the all the matters we have been used to
dealing with. When we, as learners, tend to question things around us,
the knowledge we get through it becomes deeper and long-term.
It is a real truth that questions are a doorway for understanding,
comprehension and they activate our senses of seeing life in all different
aspects, such as learning, teaching and so on.
There is nothing wrong when we question things. In fact, we should do
it all the time, since we will become more critical and confident about
our own opinions, feelings, ideas and knowledge we are getting.
Questions were made to be answered! Go and look for them!
