At its very heart, inquiry is all about thinking – thinking I order to make meaning”, (Murdoch, 2006, p. 32).

As students inquire into various questions, we often find opportunities to enhance their understandings of the dispositions that effective thinkers cultivate”, (Murdoch, 2006, p. 34).

Thinking leverage: link(s) with rich transferable concepts

Points of Reference

Links from learning in the classroom to real life experiences (Constructivism)

Strategies

Classroom planning

Explicit instructions / Scaffolding / Modelling: can students do tasks autonomously/Collaboratively)

Does it extend on student thinking?

Can students demonstrate learning?

Do strategies cater for diversity (MI)?

• Does it suit the overall, existing classroom planning
• Do students need direct, explicit instruction to be able to use the strategy?
• Does it support or extend (not restrict) student thinking?
• Are all students able to demonstrate what they think?
• Is the strategy open ended?
• Is the strategy flexible enough to cater for all sorts of thinkers?
• Is there potential for students to adapt the strategy if they need or want to?
