In my last blog I shared that we were aiming to promote reflective thinking more and more in our school this year using cooperative learning, BIG QUESTIONS and MAKING THINKING VISIBLE. I took the opportunity this week to promote such thinking using a hole that appeared on one of the walls in our corridor. I asked the BIG QUESTION: What is happening behind this hole? (I asked children to be creative in their thinking process.) And provided the VISIBLE THINKING TOOL of the Explaining Game to guide/support their thinking. Check out their thinking next time you visit us. This week we also saw our Middle Years challenging their potential by being taught Art by a specialist (Juf Miriam) in our new Multi-Purpose Room (Thanks Facilities!). |
