LESSON PLAN
ESSENTIAL OR COMPELLING QUESTIONS
Note: Essential Questions frame deep understanding. These big questions are central to the discipline. Students demonstrate proof of their knowledge by answering
these questions, using the discipline specific vocabulary. Questions address core concepts—civics, history, economics, and geography—and general points such as
cause and effect, argument, evidence, critiquing conclusions, perspectives, problem solving, and more.
