I made a #Culture wheel for the my class tomorrow as a "beginning of the year" get to you know type activity for my Grade One class. Students can draw or write (in any language) what each piece of the chart means to them. Feel free to use it! #ellchat #queer_educhat #equity pic.twitter.com/P28w0ecET2

Also, anyone reading/RT-ing this, please see earlier thread and discussion about ?d we ask kids & in what context. Here☝🏽, I only included ?s that I felt would be low stakes enough for Ss to ask each other but also some ?s to inspire some deeper thinking. https://t.co/443mgRB4H9

Here are the ?s I used: https://t.co/t73qNBhWMp

No matter what ?s you end up with, pls see thread immediately above this one.

And TY to all who suggested numbering the blocks & corresponding list of questions for Ss for greatest flexibility. 🙂
