Why This Freebie Matters
KWL stands for:
- K – What I Know
- W – What I Want to know
- L – What I Learned
This strategy helps students:
- Activate prior knowledge
- Set intentional learning goals
- Reflect on their growth
- Stay engaged and curious throughout a unit or project
It’s quick, effective, and works across any subject—science, social studies, reading, or even math!
