Department of Education
Dimensions of GPU Knowledge or Literal Understanding •Answers to information or Wh- questions are explicitly stated in the text.
Comprehension or Interpretation • The reader is tasked to read between the lines to make inferences
Application • The reader uses or applies learned materials in new and concrete situations, processes, effects, conclusions
Analysis • The reader breaks down the material into component facts so that its organizational structure can be understood such as elements, hypothesis, statement of facts, others.
Synthesis • The reader puts parts together to form a whole new pattern, structure, or design. He suggests or makes plans of action.
Evaluation • This is judging the value of something using internal criteria
Department of Education
Asking questions based on GPU Knowledge or Literal Understanding
What is the title of the story? Who are the characters? Where did Winnie live?
Comprehension or Interpretation
Why did Wilbur’s color present a problem? What did Winnie do to solve the problem?
Application
If you were Wilbur, how would you feel about being multi-colored? How do you think Winnie felt every time she sat on or tripped over Wilbur?
Analysis
Did the story make you laugh? Which parts of the story were funny?

Arthur Applebee “Curriculum is often thought of as a set of specific knowledge, skills, or books to be covered. I propose instead that we think of curriculum as a set of important conversations that we want students to engage in.” Department of Education
Let’s Ponder
“A curriculum guide is just a piece of paper unless enliven in the classrooms.”
