To the Teacher : This resource is aimed to he lp science teacher s apply Bloom s Taxonomy to science sk ills and content. There are not many r esour ces gear ed s pecif ically to science teacher s when it comes to Bloom s Taxonomy. This resource is meant to he p l you develo p questions and activities that f all into each of the six levels of Bloom s taxonomy. ’
’
’
er ent items: Each page lists 3 diff or you to 1. Question Stems. These question stems are f use to assess students on a s pecif ic level of Bloom s Taxonomy. These are not the only question stems you can use, but thes e are the ones I lik e the most. To me, they are the mos t s pecif ic and easy to use. I als o lik e to stick to these question stems because some words ar e used in mult pl i e levels . I lik e to use words and stems that are not used across levels. 2. Activities. These activities r equir e a sk ill or str ategy. The activities listed on each page r equir e a level of think ing that corresponds to the Bloom s Taxonomy level of that page. 3. Exam ples. These are examples of how you can use the ques tion stems and activities to question or assess your students. All these questions and activities are science based. ’
’
l you apply Bloom s taxonomy to hope this resource he ps your science teaching. Good luck ! ’
