DOK-1 Reporter DOK-1 ONE STEP Key Details, Facts, Words, Terms, Events acts. These can stand alone as sources of information. They require the skills of recalling, locating, reading, defining and recognizing. These questions or tasks require students to go to the source or recall information and are one –step DOK-1 questions. Students do one thing. The answer is either right or wrong. DOK-3 THREE STEPS Evidence, Quotes, Examples, References, Word Choices, Points of View, Bias, Purpose., New Problems, Conclusions, Generalizations, Conjectures. These concepts move students into reasoning. They require the skills of explaining, generalizing, connecting, describing the effects of, solving and interpreting. DOK- 3, three -step questions are asking students to (1) explain “HOW” the two-step questions are connected [how are the key details helping us identify the main idea? How do the illustrations in the text contribute more to the story?] (2) show how they solved the question using words, pictures, graphic organizers and (3) draw and justify a conclusion. DOK-2 TWO STEPS Cause and Effect, Results, Relationships, Concepts, Ideas. These are not stand alone concepts. They are broader. They require the skills of specifying, explaining, showing, summarizing, logically inferring, identifying, predicting and showing explicit generalizations using two-steps (1) locating and selecting those stand-alone pieces of information (DOK- 1 facts, terms, words, etc…) to (2) identify and verify the correct answer. The answer is still either right or wrong. DOK-2 Interpreter DOK-3 Judge DOK-2 Example: What is an important fact about spiders? DOK-2 Example: What is the main idea of the story?

1 Set of Question Cards 1 Set of DOK DOTS Pre-Game Sheet Supply List: Golden Keys A bunch of golden keys is mine To make each day with gladness shine. "Good morning!" that's the golden key That unlocks every door for me. When evening comes, "Good night!" I say, And close the door of each glad day. When at the table "If you please" I take from off my bunch of keys. When friends give anything to me, I'll use the little "Thank you" key. "Excuse me," "Beg your pardon," too, When by mistake some harm I do. Or if unkindly harm I've given, With "Forgive me" key I'll be forgiven. On a golden ring these keys I'll bind, This is its motto: "Be ye kind.“ I'll often use each golden key, And so a happy child I'll be.
