KWL Chart

This template helps teams and classrooms organize knowledge using the KWL method—what you Know, Want to know, and have Learned. It provides interactive boards, color-coded columns, and a built-in progress tracker to guide discussions, capture questions, and reflect on learning outcomes. By visualizing knowledge at different stages, teams can clarify starting points, set learning goals, and document key takeaways in a simple, collaborative way.

Overview

Activate prior knowledge and guide learning with this KWL Chart template — a foundational teaching tool that helps students articulate what they Know, what they Want to know, and what they Learned after instruction. Built for educators and students on a shared Zoom Whiteboard canvas.

Key Features

  • Three-column layout: Know, Want to Know, Learned
  • Individual and group contribution zones
  • Pre-session and post-session fills for before/after comparison
  • Color-coded sticky note areas for student input
  • Teacher notes section for curriculum context and prompts

How to Use

  1. Before the lesson, ask students to add sticky notes to the Know column — what do they already know about this topic? Use the Quick Actions widget for fast entry
  2. Ask students to add questions to the Want to Know column — what are they curious about or unsure of?
  3. Conduct your lesson, activity, or reading
  4. After instruction, have students return to the board and fill the Learned column with new knowledge and answers to their earlier questions
  5. Review the before/after contrast as a class — use the Pen tool to circle connections between the Want to Know and Learned columns

Benefits

KWL charts do two things at once: they activate prior knowledge (which research shows improves retention) and they give students ownership over their own learning goals. On a shared canvas, every student contributes — not just the most confident voices.
