== Adaptations == There are various adaptations of KWL charts that can be used within the classroom. === Hill === One adaptation as created by Hill<ref>Hill, Bonnie Campbell, Ruptic, Cynthia & Norwick, Lisa. Classroom Based Assessment. (1998). Christopher-Gordon Publishers, Inc., Norwood MA</ref><ref name="auto2">Instructional strategies online. (2009). Retrieved October 26, 2012, from http://olc.spsd.sk.ca/DE/PD/instr/strats/kwl/ {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120626173049/http://olc.spsd.sk.ca/DE/PD/instr/strats/kwl/ |date=2012-06-26 }}</ref> is an extension of the traditional KWL chart to include a column for "Further Wonderings" at the end of the table. This allows for the students' knowledge to continue beyond what they have learned within the classroom. The idea behind this extra column is to encourage the students to continue to learn.<ref name="auto2"/> === KLEW === Another adaptation of the KWL chart is the KLEW chart.<ref name="auto3">Hershberger, K., Zembal-Saul, C., & Starr, M. L. (2006). Evidence helps the KWL get a KLEW. Science & Children, 43(5), 50β53.</ref> The KLEW chart was developed by a group of people with various backgrounds including an elementary school teacher, a professor and a professional development specialist.<ref name="auto3"/> Within this chart, the "K" stands for what students know of a topic, the "L" for what is being learned, the "E" for evidence that supports the learning previously described, and the "W" for wondering, which leaves room for further questions.<ref name="auto3"/> This table differs from the traditional KWL chart as it places an emphasis on observation and examination of evidence that supports what they see.<ref name="auto3"/> === Mooney === Margaret Mooney suggested a variation to the KWL chart by adding a fifth column to the traditional chart. This column would be located between the "W" and the "L". Its purpose is to answer the question "How".<ref name="auto2"/> This encourages the students to develop their own means of how they will discover more information. This can be quite useful in the sciences for experimentation purposes.{{Citation needed|date=February 2016}}
