Using the Question Formulation Technique (QFT) for Formative Assessment

Lucy Canotas, a fourth-grade teacher in Manchester, New Hampshire, used the QFT to learn more about what her students knew or did not know about fractions. This video shows Canotas using a visual Question Focus to stimulate students’ questions. She leads her class through each step of the Question Formulation Technique, all the way through their reflections at the end on what they learned and liked about the process.
