Why Are School Buses Always Yellow?: Teaching for Inquiry, K-8

Using examples from real classrooms, the book shows teachers how to connect inquiry to required content while still moving students toward more control of their own learning. Teachers can learn to help all students, including those with special needs, to reform their initial playful, tangential, or shallow questions to deeper questions about content that will help them develop the thinking skills that they will continue to use throughout school and into adulthood.
