THINKING TOOLS - 0 views

  •  
    Using thinking tools is one way to "make thinking visible" and help our students explain their thoughts in a simple and explicit way. As the team from Project Zero themselves say "Visible Thinking includes a large number of classroom routines, easily and flexibly integrated with content learning, and representing areas of thinking such as understanding, truth and evidence, fairness and moral reasoning, creativity, self-management, and decision making. It also provides tools for integrating the arts with subject-matter content. Finally, it includes a practical framework for how to create "cultures of thinking" in individual classrooms and within an entire school."

Sticking to the 'Main Thing'-A positive leadership reflection | Educational Leadership ... - 0 views

  • One of the first leadership decisions I made was to work with staff to audit our schools meta-curriculum. That is all of those programs, events, celebrations, operational arrangements and practices which are not core to the teaching and learning that happens inside classrooms.
  • My mantra was to “give teachers permission to spend their time improving the learning of the students in their class with minimal disruption”.
  • Students are spending less time out of classrooms and more time focused on their own learning.
