In order to engage students in instruction that integrates social   studies and the arts, teachers need to use a variety of questioning   strategies. Questioning engages students’ depth of knowledge and   promotes problem-solving and higher-order thinking.

Part 1: Questioning Strategies

In Topic 1, you researched instructional strategies that support a   learning activity that integrates social studies and the arts.

For this assignment, you will use the same grade level standards in   social studies and the arts, and the learning objective you used in   Topic 1. Examine questioning strategies that develop higher-order   skills, stimulate discussion, and promote inquiry and critical   thinking, in order to complete the “Questioning   Strategies” template. The questions you create should include   concepts in social studies and the arts, procedures and applications   from social studies and the arts, activate prior knowledge for the   lesson, and encourage exploration and problem-solving. The   “Questioning Strategies” template includes:

• Social studies standard and an arts standard, grade level, and     learning objectives from Topic 1.
• A variety of five probing     questions that can be used as pre-assessment and formative     assessment questions.

Part 2: Reflection

In 250-500 words, summarize and reflect on how asking a variety of   questions and using different questioning strategies can help students   develop higher-order skills, activate prior knowledge, encourage   exploration, and promote problem-solving and inquiry. Explain how   questioning strategies can be implemented to meet the learning needs   of diverse students in your future professional practice.

Support your findings with a minimum of three scholarly resources.
