Cross Curricular - Thinking SkillsCode G16Price $40 Achievement Objectives: To improve teacher planning and student learning.

Key Competencies: This resource focuses on thinking; including decision making, problem solving, asking questions, evaluating, organizing and reflecting on ones own practice. Overview: What is thinking? Thinking refers to the process of creating a structured series of connective transactions between items of perceived information. Thinking skills are one of the most important areas of the curriculum. Helping students develop and improve their thinking skills is an essential and challenging task for all educators. However, it is often the case that what works for one student may not work at all for another student or in a different situation. The variables within the classroom can be overwhelming. In order to meet the diverse learning needs and styles in our teaching and learning environment we may need to change the way we think or the way we teach. An effective learning environment is one that offers a differentiated learning programme, a programme of learning that offers: A range of content entry points (what the learning objective is for the individual)) A range of processes (how they will learn it) A range of products (how they show their understanding) A range of learning environments (visual, tactile etc.)This resource package introduces a range of thinking skills templates to assist the teacher in providing a learning environment where the different learning styles of the students are being met. Content: This resource package contains the following templates A teacher’s “How To Guide” for the thinking skills templates; Bibliography; Bloom’s Taxonomy Planning sheet; Consequence Chart; Diamond Ranking; Fishbone Diagram; Flowchart; Futures Line; Futures Wheel; Placemat Chart; PMI chart; PNQ Chart; Thinking Skills; Venn Diagram; Web Map; Y chart 1 & Y chart 2These templates can be used across the curriculum and encourage creative, critical and connected thinking. Thinking about problem solving, analysing, thinking outside of the square, and thinking about thinking? The templates can be applied to any teaching situation or topic. Teachers may choose to use one or several of the templates during a lesson or topic. At any point in a lesson students may be working on different thinking templates or all on the same template, depending on how they learn, their entry point, how they show their understanding or the environment in which they are working in.

The activity thus includes opportunities for students to improve their key competencies while acquiring knowledge in the Social Sciences learning area. - the specific achievement objective is Understanding how economic decisions impact on people, communities and nations (which is part of the Economic World strand at Level 5). The key competencies being focused on are:
