The valued learning outcomes I want to improve for my students in this inquiry are for learners to know what and why they are learning this information.  This term I am being more intentional to make changes in my learning design.

The reasons why I think these changes in my teaching will be effective for my learners are because they act as scaffolds to support my learners to build their language capabilities in talking about their learning.
