KWL stands for KNOW, WONDER, LEARN. An optional H can also be added for HOW. KWL can come in many different formats, but the most common is a three-column chart.
KWL charts are versatile and can be used at many different levels, from kindergarten to high school and in different subject areas. One of the purposes of a KWL chart is to stimulate prior knowledge and get students really thinking about the topic. Filling in a KWL chart as a small group or whole class can be especially effective in engaging students about what they already know and what they WANT to know.
