Inspire Ideas with Great Books<br />
Teachers <strong>and</strong> students are the heart <strong>and</strong> soul of<br />
the Great Books Foundation. Nothing is more<br />
important to us than working closely with educators<br />
to engage young students in reading <strong>and</strong> thinking.<br />
Starting in kindergarten <strong>and</strong> through the early<br />
grades, Junior Great Books ® brings the power of<br />
Shared <strong>Inquiry</strong> to students of all abilities, fueling<br />
their imaginations <strong>and</strong> encouraging them to ask<br />
questions. Through collaboration <strong>and</strong> discussion,<br />
students can share their thoughts <strong>and</strong> opinions<br />
while listening to the ideas of others.<br />
As students advance, we give them an opportunity<br />
to discover <strong>and</strong> explore essential ideas in ethics,<br />
citizenship, <strong>and</strong> world culture. We give them the<br />
skills to think critically about new <strong>and</strong> unfamiliar<br />
points of view as expressed through fiction,<br />
nonfiction, <strong>and</strong> poetry.<br />
Together we seek an active discussion that allows<br />
students <strong>and</strong> teachers to underst<strong>and</strong> the influence<br />
of a wide range of great thinkers <strong>and</strong> writers such<br />
as Martin Luther King Jr. <strong>and</strong> Lois Lowry.<br />
Together we demonstrate through the regular<br />
practice of Junior Great Books, Great Books<br />
Roundtable, <strong>and</strong> Great Books Seminar the ways<br />
in which engagement with literature drives social<br />
<strong>and</strong> emotional development <strong>and</strong> our capacity to<br />
underst<strong>and</strong> the world from different points of view.<br />
The Great Books Foundation was established in<br />
1947 <strong>and</strong> became a leader in educational reform.<br />
Great Books President Joseph Coulson with students<br />
attending the Great Books Summer Program at Stanford.<br />
We continue to lead through our methodology,<br />
books, school collaborations, outreach, <strong>and</strong><br />
community participation.<br />
In schools that invite our books <strong>and</strong> method of<br />
learning, in partnership with the teachers who care so<br />
deeply about their students, we at Great Books st<strong>and</strong><br />
for the importance of talking to students about the<br />
great ideas <strong>and</strong> values of the past <strong>and</strong> their absolute<br />
necessity in shaping the future.<br />
Join us as we continue to inspire great ideas, dialogue,<br />
<strong>and</strong> lives.<br />

Discover the Power of Shared <strong>Inquiry</strong><br />
Improve teaching <strong>and</strong> learning across the curriculum<br />
In Shared <strong>Inquiry</strong>, students—guided by their teacher—explore a text by discussing open-ended questions <strong>and</strong><br />
sharing responses <strong>and</strong> insights. This method of teaching <strong>and</strong> learning helps students learn to think about what<br />
they read, express <strong>and</strong> develop their ideas, <strong>and</strong> learn from one another. Shared <strong>Inquiry</strong> enhances all the basic<br />
language arts skills—reading comprehension, critical thinking, writing, speaking, <strong>and</strong> listening—<strong>and</strong> enables<br />
students to learn more across the curriculum.<br />
Teachers embrace a collaborative approach that<br />
helps them:<br />
• Engage students in higher-level reading, thinking,<br />
<strong>and</strong> discussion<br />
• Monitor <strong>and</strong> support comprehension for students<br />
at all reading levels<br />
• Integrate critical thinking <strong>and</strong> socio-emotional<br />
learning into their curriculum<br />
• Naturally assess students’ progress toward state <strong>and</strong><br />
district learning st<strong>and</strong>ards<br />
Students who participate in Shared <strong>Inquiry</strong> build<br />
proficiency in these key areas:<br />
• Reading for meaning<br />
• Utilizing reading comprehension strategies<br />
• Supporting ideas with text evidence<br />
• Considering different points of view<br />
• Listening to others <strong>and</strong> responding appropriately<br />
• Thoughtfully considering different points of view<br />
• Transferring ideas from discussion to formal<br />
writing<br />
• Contributing to a collaborative, respectful<br />
classroom environment<br />

“Possibly the best PD I’ve ever attended. I loved<br />
the fact that the focus of the training wasn’t<br />
on the curriculum itself but more so on the<br />
Shared <strong>Inquiry</strong> methodology that makes this<br />
curriculum—or any other—come alive! After the<br />
training, I felt better equipped as a teacher <strong>and</strong><br />
more enlightened as a thinker.”<br />

• Shared <strong>Inquiry</strong> discussion<br />

“A Great Books discussion encourages students to form<br />
opinions, but then requires them to justify <strong>and</strong> exp<strong>and</strong><br />
their point of view. At the same time, they’re learning<br />
that other people’s opinions are worth hearing, <strong>and</strong> that<br />
what they learn by listening <strong>and</strong> delving deeper into a text<br />
challenges their thinking <strong>and</strong> helps them develop initial<br />
responses into sophisticated theories.”<br />

After doing a few Great Books Roundtable units, Mr. Fisher has noticed that<br />
some of his students struggle to make notes during the first reading, whereas<br />
others do it comfortably. He uses both the Support <strong>and</strong> Challenge box<br />
suggestions that appear in the Stage 1 First Reading card (card 12 ) to address<br />
his students’ diverse learning needs. Mr. Fisher begins by writing the following<br />
prompts on the board:<br />
Mr. Fisher reads the first two pages of “Props for Faith” aloud with the following interjections.<br />
Great Books Roundtable Road Map • Level 2<br />
Mr. Fisher knows that to keep the students engaged in the reading, it is important to refrain from<br />
interrupting the flow of the story <strong>and</strong> to stop only when students seem to struggle with comprehension.<br />
He reads without interjecting until further into the story, when he notices that no one is marking<br />
questions during a passage rich with interpretive issues (the highlighted passage on pages 33–34).<br />

“never stayed up.” That detail helps me see Renate<br />
pretty clearly.<br />
Mr. Fisher: Okay. As we read, you may find it helpful to visualize, or<br />
picture in your mind, what is going on in the story. Try<br />
to imagine sights, smells, sounds, <strong>and</strong> feelings.<br />
(After reading to “. . . had lived half of his five years<br />
without a father” [p. 32].) I’m not sure who this Trudi Mr. Fisher models how to make<br />
Montag person is. I’ll put a question mark here <strong>and</strong> read notes about questions while reading<br />
on to see if she is important to the story.<br />
(Support).<br />
(After reading to “. . . the old Greeks <strong>and</strong> Romans”<br />
[p. 33].) Before we continue, let’s share some of the Mr. Fisher includes students’ notes in<br />
questions we have so far.<br />
the modeling process (Support).<br />
Kurt: I want to know why the narrator tells us why Adolf<br />
Hitler wasn’t mentioned in her class.<br />
Mr. Fisher: Okay, make sure you put a question mark next to that.<br />
James: I put a question mark next to the second paragraph on<br />
page 32. I wonder why the doctors kept Renate for over<br />
a year.<br />
Mr. Fisher: Did anyone mark a place where they agreed or<br />
disagreed with something?<br />
Mary: I did. I marked on page 31 that I agreed with Frau<br />
Brocker. I don’t think the midwife is Renate’s real<br />
mother either.<br />
Mr. Fisher: Let’s continue reading <strong>and</strong> marking questions. If you’ve Mr. Fisher prompts students using the<br />
been marking where you agree or disagree with<br />
multiple-note option to share their<br />
something, continue with that, too.<br />
reactions to the text (Challenge).<br />
Mr. Fisher: (After reading to “But I didn’t mean it . . .” [p. 34].) Did<br />
anyone mark a question on this page? (No response.)<br />
Let’s read it again. (Rereads from “‘Why not?’ I shouted Mr. Fisher pauses to reread a difficult<br />
. . . ” to “ . . . I couldn’t bring out one word” [pp.<br />
passage that students have not marked<br />
33–34].)<br />
(Support).<br />
I have a question. Why does “something hot <strong>and</strong> sad Mr. Fisher shows students how a<br />
<strong>and</strong> mean” rise inside Hanna when she thinks about passage contains opportunities for<br />
Renate playing with Sybille? (Continues reading to the questions by briefly modeling the<br />
end of the page.) Did anyone mark a question this time? questioning process <strong>and</strong> having<br />
Simon: I marked next to “Her limp seemed worse than ever<br />
students follow suit (Support).<br />
before” because I wonder why Hanna thinks this. (A few<br />
more students share their questions.)<br />
Mr. Fisher: Did anyone who has been marking agreement or<br />
Mr. Fisher encourages students who<br />
disagreement note anything in this passage?<br />
are marking the higher-level prompt to<br />
Zora: I put a check mark next to the part where Renate’s face<br />

is “red, then ashen.” I agree with how Renate reacts to<br />
Hanna. I think I would act that way, too. (Another<br />
student explains a mark of agreement or disagreement.)<br />
Mr. Fisher: All right, let’s read on.<br />

“I originally began using<br />
Junior Great Books to provide<br />
my students with enriching,<br />
well-written text to analyze<br />
<strong>and</strong> discuss. Little did I know<br />
it would change my own<br />
thoughts on reading as an<br />
adult, evoke emotions in me,<br />
<strong>and</strong> bring me to tears as I<br />
watched my students develop<br />
empathy, become active listeners, <strong>and</strong> broaden<br />
their ideas of the world around them. ”<br />
