Democratizing the DBQ:
Using DBQs to Engage ALL Students in Reading, Writing, and Thinking in Social Studies and Literature
For over almost two decades, The DBQ Project has promoted rigorous reading and writing instruction for all students, not just those in advanced classes. The introductory workshop is designed to get teachers new to the DBQ pedagogy excited about the process. It is also reinvigorating for those teachers already steeped in DBQ experience. The day includes an overview of The DBQ Project 6-Step Method where teachers go through all the steps in a lively, interactive session. Special emphasis will be placed on differentiating the process to meet the needs of all learners and utilizing the gradual-release model for document analysis. The goal of the workshop is for all participants to leave enthusiastically ready to implement a DBQ in their classrooms. Participants will receive a sample unit from The DBQ Project materials. History/Social Studies and ELA/R teachers, administrators and instructional coaches of grades 3-12 are encouraged to attend. Lunch will be provided.
WORKSHOP FEE : $50.00
(Lunch Included)
