Hi Elizabeth,

Thank you for pointing me to the new Inquiry Skills spreadsheet. I had been using the older FOSIL (2009) Inquiry Skills Framework up to now. Can I ask, is there any blog post written as a how to guide for using the new FOSIL (2019) inquiry skills framework? It would just be helpful to see how the creators of this document envisioned it being used. If there isn’t such a document, how do you use it for curriculum planning and teaching? If I am creating a curriculum map for at what grades levels are teaching which inquiry skills at my school do you think this would be a useful document to reference?

Thank you for your guidance regarding this,

Matt
