What it does

Resources from your central idea, not a template.

Provocations, thinking routines and organizers, each with the facilitation notes generic tools never give you.

01

Built around your inquiry

Every resource is generated from your central idea, lines of inquiry and specified concepts, not a stock template with an inquiry sticker.

02

Three resource types

Opening provocations (image, scenario, contradiction, mystery, what-if), thinking routines (See-Think-Wonder, Circle of Viewpoints and more), and graphic organizers (Frayer, concept map, KWL).

03

Facilitation notes on every resource

How to run it, the questions to draw out, what good thinking looks like, and which line of inquiry it serves. The thing generic tools don't give you.

04

Yours to shape

Swap, regenerate, simplify for younger learners or stretch for older, and localize the context before you use it.

05

Assign or print

Push to a class, or download a clean student version and a teacher version with the facilitation notes.

Why not ChatGPT or Twinkl

The difference is the facilitation notes.

Those hand you a generic worksheet. Inquiry Studio gives a provocation framed to your central idea, with notes a coordinator would recognise as PYP-native.

Questions, answered

The details, before you ask.

Which ages and phases?
Early Years through PYP 5, with resources you can simplify for younger learners or stretch for older ones.
Do I need a unit planner?
No. You can type in your central idea and lines of inquiry, or upload your planner for optional autofill.
Are the thinking routines the real ones?
Yes. They use real Harvard Project Zero routine steps, kept verbatim, not approximations.
Are there marks or grades?
Never. This is inquiry, not assessment, so there are no marks or bands.
