The KWL thinking routine is a powerful learning strategy that encourages students to actively engage with new topics by reflecting on what they Know, what they Want to learn, and what they have Learned throughout the learning process. Here’s more about each stage of the KWL thinking routine:
Know: In this stage, students brainstorm and discuss what they already know about the topic. This could include prior knowledge, experiences, or assumptions. By activating prior knowledge, students can make connections to new information and build a foundation for learning.
Want to Know: In this stage, students generate questions and express their curiosity about the topic. These questions can range from specific inquiries to broader themes or concepts they hope to explore further. Wanting to know encourages students to take ownership of their learning and directs their focus towards areas of interest.
Learned: In this stage, students reflect on and summarize what they have learned about the topic. This could include key facts, insights, or connections they have made during the learning process. By articulating their understanding, students consolidate their learning and gain a sense of accomplishment.
The KWL thinking routine is a versatile tool that can be adapted to various subjects and grade levels. It promotes active learning, critical thinking, and metacognition, empowering students to become more independent and engaged learners.
