When you are planning to do an inquiry based project or a project based project, you need to develop an essential question to fit the unit. This question should be able to be researched in different subjects. My essential question is where is the best place to live? By asking this essential question, students will have to research and evaluate regions that would be ideal for them to live in. Because of different wants and needs of people, there is no correct answer to this question. My essential questions can be researched in science, social studies and language arts. In my unit plan, I included three unit questions to help students get to the best answer. The students will compare information, make desicions, and learn by listening so that they produce and answer to the essential question. The answer to my essential question can be best answered by the beliefs of the person asking theirself the essential question.
