Description - Reaching Out to All Thinkers by Ian Harris
Our classrooms are filled with the thinking citizens of tomorrow. How in touch are you with thinking skills and how central are they to your teaching? This booklet is designed to function in two ways: as an aide-memoire for those who are already familiar with the world of thinking skills; and as a simple overview for those to whom thinking skills is a new area. Reaching Out To All Thinkers presents the full spectrum of thinking skills techniques and strategies - both old and new, offering a wealth of straightforward ideas to try in the classroom as well as plenty of 'food for thought'. The booklet draws on the work of major thinking skills figures such as de Bono and Feuerstein, and includes: practical strategies for creating better thinking habits both in the classroom and in the world beyond school; the link between creativity and thinking; the theory behind thinking skills; the mechanics of thinking; visual tools to aid thinking; how to model effective thinking to your pupils. This is an essential booklet for all teachers. Without thinking, there is no learning.
