The Big6 is a problem-solving strategy developed by teacher-researchers Bob Berkowitz and Mike Eisenberg. It is used by students as a research model. To learn more about the Big6, click here or on the Big6 logo in this posting.
Here's how the Big6 Question of the Week works:
- Every Monday morning, our students are introduced to a Big6 Question of the Week. The questions range in difficulty and across all subjects.
- Students find the answer to the question through their own research or with help from their teacher or parents. Adults in the school participate as well.
- Answers are recorded on Big6 answer forms and placed in the Big6 box which is located in the media center. Click here to access the "official" Big6 answer forms.
- On Friday, answer forms are pulled from the Big6 box to find the first student and adult with the correct answer. The correct answer to the question, the "winners" and a new question are all announced on Monday morning.
