Inquiry-based Companion Guide to any Text on Bullying Using Visible Thinking Routines

By using this comprehensive inquiry-based guide, you can analyze any novel or short story using Harvard Project Zero Visible Thinking Routines and reading strategies. It includes 3 projects with rubrics, 3 writing tasks, and 20 different activities, most of which include Visible Thinking Routines. Other than Visible Thinking Routines, there are cooperative learning activities such as expert groups, gallery walk, Socratic discussions. There are also formative assessment tasks at the end of each project.
I used Trudy Ludwig’s short novel, Just Kidding but you can use them with any text on bullying with the exception of one activity: Reading response journal. The questions in this activity are about the novel. You can use similar questions about the text you are using.
It will take you one month to complete all the tasks and projects in the guide, but if you do not have enough time, you can omit some of them. You can also differentiate them by assigning them to different groups of students. You can use it either digitally as there is a Google Drive link in Notes to the Teacher section or as a hard copy if your students do not have devices. Please do not start using the guide before you read Notes to the Teacher.
