Diving into Bauby's Mind


Aim: How do we dive into Bauby's mind using Depth of Knowledge (DOK) questions?  

Quick Write: Generate one deep question you have to guide today's reading of The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.


Watch this movie trailer for The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.

The metaphor for today is diving deep. If there is anything we hope you have learned from our Socratic seminars, it's that questions are the fuel that drives knowledge. Do you think you ask good questions? Check it out on the "Depth of Knowledge Question Stems" sheet in which DOK 1 is the lowest level question and DOK 4 is the highest level. How does your Quick Write question score?

Today we will continue to reciprocally read The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, summarizing and generating questions as we go.

Today's activity: When we've completed the reading for the day, continue developing your Mind Map. (You should have opened a free account.) As your mind map develops each day, you should share it on your blog. You may prefer to mind map using colored pencils and paper or other materials--and that's okay too.

Argument Essays are due!!!!!!
