The Thinking Classroom: Using
Inspiration® to Meet Curriculum Standards is
designed to support teachers as they help students develop their critical
thinking strategies. Each of the book's six sections includes an overview of
a key cognitive strategy and its application in the major curriculum areas
of language arts, science and social studies. |
This innovative teacher resource book takes a
new approach by offering in-depth explanations of visual learning's role in
mastering fundamental thinking skills:
 | Determining cause and effect |
 | Making comparison |
 | Decoding ideas |
 | Generating questions |
 | Evaluating information |
 | Testing one's knowledge |
|
 |
Each of the six sections of the book provides
teachers with a summary of a specific cognitive strategy, examples of
templates and diagrams that students can use to apply the strategy to a
wide-range of topics, and finally a sample lesson of the thinking skill in
language arts, social studies and science. Lesson plans for each subject
area provide all the information teachers need to model a thinking skill and
help their students practice the strategy.
