Learning in Progress (Heidi Neltner) Teen Librarian » teens, libraries, schools, news, reviews… Jennifer LaGarde: The Adventures of Library Girl That's a Good Question! Encouraging Inquiry through Nonfiction Texts Students are naturally curious. How can we channel that curiosity into learning? By simply feeding it, of course, with books that not only provide answers, but ask more questions! The first step of our time-proven scientific method is, after all, to pose a question. That's why I love books that encourage questions. In this fun, inviting book you'll find the answers to that question and more, including Does the average human consume four spiders per year while sleeping? The perfect classroom extension would be to collect similar questions to answer, and myths to debunk. Research Rocket (pictured) was recently featured at my Teaching that Sticks blog, and is highly recommended if you're looking for a fun, interactive way to teach the research process.Brain Pop is a popular site featuring short videos on many nonfiction topics. If your audience is a bit older, or if you're working with a gifted group, I'd also recommend The Nobel Book of Answers. Why can't I live on French fries?
