too many questions
By sheila

I think there are a lot of good ideas listed here. I teach fifth grade and my class is full of questions and comments everyday. Two things we do at my school are "C3B4Me" Where the students see three other students about their question, comment, or concern before coming to me. Also, we use a "parking lot" for questions, comments, and concerns not stated during class. Students all have small post-its and they write down what they didn't get to ask in class. At the end of the lesson, during transition, their group leaders can take these to our designated bulletin board entitled The Parking Lot. Afterwards, I read through them and decide which questions I should readdress the following day, and which may be immediate concerns.
