Dive into Inquiry as our first book of the school year. Hopefully it will get you thinking about different ways you can support teachers when they have a research topic to teach. Take a look at the questions below and join in when you can.

10. There are many great quotes in this book. What is your favourite one and why?
9. Creating your own question is a tough thing to do and to teach. What tools do you use to teach this?
8. Trevor talks about collaboration with the school librarian. Does this happen in your school and is there more collaborating to be done?
7. How do you feel your school library would be able to support a free inquiry? Would it be easy or difficult?
6. If you have already helped with an inquiry project do you think you would be able to talk to your teacher about using some of these ideas?
5. On page 28 there is a diagram of different types of inquiry. Do you recognise and use any of them with your students and teachers?
4. Trevor created a list on p18 about ‘what makes a good teacher’ what would you think students would put on a list for ‘what makes a good school librarian? Do you feel you could use this with a group of your students?
3. Trevor talks about co-designing in chapter 2. If we don’t have classes can we help teachers to find out more about their students? How can we do this?
2. If you do support inquiry learning in your school what do you do?
