KWL


KWL is a very simple strategy that may help teachers and students to organize ideas about a certain topic. “K” is for Know. “W” is for Want to know; and “L” is for Learned. The phases to implement it are:

1) The teacher introduces the topic and draws the KWL chart on the board. Then, the teacher writes down the ideas students have about the topic.
2) The teacher writes on the second column of the KWL chart what the students want to know about that specific topic.
3) Students read the material silently, and then teacher and students compare what they had written in the first and second columns with the material, and write the answers in the third column.
