How to design and use essential questions to create high order, inquiry-based and engaging units of work for gifted and talented students.  Using essential questions is a key strategy for designing challenging units of work for gifted and talented students, and a study of NSW schools with high-quality differentiated practice found that one of the common elements was their use of essential or 'big picture' questions to design learning and engage students.  In this practical workshop we will explore how to use resources such as Bloom's Taxonomy, SOLO Taxonomy and the Williams Model to create essential questions, and how to link these to differentiated questioning and success criteria.
