Help me give my students a large 6' x 6' bulletin board as they walk into the room. The goal here is to build a community of young scientists to share their ideas!

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
A key element of an inquiry-based science pedagogy is to let the students drive their own learning. One way to guide this is by having them formulate their own questions which lead to hypotheses and experiments they themselves find interesting.
What I'm aiming for here is to create a big, bold, creative space--a vision board, if you will--to help them share and showcase their unique thinking about the world around them and ways to investigate it.
This "Driving Questions Board (DQB)" is also key to the 8th-grade curriculum and integrated into each unit.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
