l have to make a guided inquiry lesson on lizards and l can not think of any good questions! l have to teach kindergarten! Help!

 

What are some good questions I could ask kids about lizards

Let the kids do some of the asking. Have u ever used a KWL? Kids like those & it is a good way to introduce a new topic. K = Know, W = Want to know, L = Learn. You put three different poster boards up, each one with the letters mentioned above. You discuss with the students what they Know & write those on the K poster. Then discuss what they Want to know & write that on the W poster. After you've gone through the lesson, then u discuss what they've Learned & put that on the L poster. In this way, kids will ask a lot of questions. I find when I do this that the questions the students ask often prompt me into asking questions that I had not thought of before.more higher learning questions, even for kindergarteners.

Good luck. Hope that helps.

 

What are some good questions I could ask kids about lizards

My son is in 5th grade & came up with these ideas:

Do u like dragons?
Did u know that u could have a dragon for a pet?(if u had a huge enough room, & it was tamed)
Did u know that there is something called a Kimodo Dragon?
Did u know that it is actually a lizard? the biggest lizard?
Is a lizard a mammal, reptile, amphibian, bird, or a fish?
What r the characteristics that make a lizard a reptile?
Is a salamander a lizard?
Were dinosaurs lizards?
