Is teaching skills enough?
Observe, analyse, question
Can we teach this?
Thinking routines make it possible ----using see, think, wonder
We can use this routine for any type of thinking or any context, it is a universal tool.
This allows students to "dig deeper" into their thinking and not just say what they see on the surface but actually reflect on what they see.
A thinking routine will become a habit.
By using the same thinking routine over and over again, the students will get used to it and this routine will become simple for them.
They will become intentional learners and have a deep understanding for what they have learned.]]> 2020-06-06 15:41:29 UTC https://padlet.com/billiedayton20/eg21va77okdkj1x9/wish/614334352 PZ Thinking Routines ttaub002 https://padlet.com/billiedayton20/eg21va77okdkj1x9/wish/614350844 (video)
-good thinkers know how to think creatively, critically and deeply and they do it
-habits of observing, analyzing and questioning
-thinking routines are simple structures= questions or steps, can be done alone or in a group, invite broad range of thinking, transfer easily to any context
-helps students move beyond the superficial
-digging deeper makes the complex accessible
-Practice helps learners become sensitive to using thinking routines in the wild and helps develop Habits of Mind-->sustain curiosity
-use thinking routines in as many contexts as possible to get comfortable ex: asking deep questions, making connections, generating explanantions

Young children are visual learners.

 "SEE"  Ask children what they see with there eyes.

"THINK" is a process, make connections to get them to "dig deeper"
Tie it all in, children have scattered brains so you have to bring them back to focus.

"WONDER" this is when you ask questions to prompt the students.

- "The study found that when thinking is part of the daily routine, children become alert to situations that call for thinking, and, as a result, they build up positive attitudes toward thinking and learning."
 -" When children are aware of their thinking processes, they develop dispositions of good thinking and become more critical and able to expand their expressive repertoire (writing, drawing, dancing, and singing). Developing dispositions of good thinking results in a better understanding of the world, allowing children to learn more and perform better in school. "]]> 2020-06-06 17:32:45 UTC https://padlet.com/billiedayton20/eg21va77okdkj1x9/wish/614421184 Making Thinking Visible acepe003 https://padlet.com/billiedayton20/eg21va77okdkj1x9/wish/614424348 ·      Learning is a consequence of thinking. Students' understanding of content, and even their memory for content, increases when they think through—and with—the concepts and information they are studying.

·      All students can engage in a conversation focused on personal thoughts rather than definitive knowledge.

·      Reflection is more complex than simply remembering.

  • First, you can have students share their answers for the "See" column.
  • Once students have responded to the See column, they can then share their responses to the "Think" column.
  • Finally, you can have students share their "Wonders" from the images. (This can also initiate a discussion because once a wonder question has been asked, if another student thinks they know the answer, they can respond.)
    • By using this formula for students to state their opinions, you are supporting the students who might have something to say, but not know exactly how to formulate it in a sentence to be shared.

    In order to run the activity, you will give the students a chart that says See-Think-Wonder. It is helpful to write prompting questions such as what to do you see, what to do you think, what to do you wonder in order to guide their thinking.
