As part of a Professional Learning Community (PLC), the author is asked to focus on the four essential questions of learning when developing projects: (1) What is it teachers want their students to learn?; (2) How will teachers know if each student has learned it?; (3) How will teachers respond when some students do not learn it?; and (4) How can teachers extend and enrich the learning for students who have demonstrated proficiency? This article highlights how each of these questions was addressed in an eighth-grade clay unit. (Contains 1 online resource.)
