Compare and contrast with a partner how you planned for your think aloud vs. the outcome of the delivery.
Reflect and Share…How did you implement?

The Rubric
Thinking
Over the course of multiple observations, the teacher consistently and thoroughly teaches two types of thinking:
analytical thinking where students
analyze, compare and contrast, and evaluate and explain information.
practical thinking where students use, apply, and implement what they learn in real-life scenarios.
creative thinking where students create, design, imagine and suppose.
research-based thinking where students explore and review a variety of ideas, models, and solutions to problems.
The teacher sometimes provides opportunities where students: generate a variety of ideas and
alternatives. analyze problems from multiple
perspectives and viewpoints.
Problem Solving
Over the course of multiple observations, the teacher implements activities that teach and reinforce 4 or more of the following problem solving types.
Abstraction Categorization Drawing Conclusions/Justifying Solution Predicting Outcomes Observing and Experimenting Improving Solutions Identifying Relevant/Irrelevant Information Generating Ideas Creating and Designing

Teacher Behaviors that Support ‘Thinking’
MODELING• Emulating others is a basic
way of learning.• Model what you expect. Do
not be a “do as I say, not as I do” educator.
QUESTIONING• Higher-level questioning• Learners must be
presented with problems and questions, the answers to which are not apparent.
STRUCTURING• Clear expectations• Thinking happens throughout
the school day, across content areas, and over extended periods of time.
• Opportunities for interaction• Address all learning styles
RESPONDING• Wait time• Accepting without judgment• Clarify when you don’t understand• Academic Feedback• Empathizing

TASK: Bring back three student samples of the student product.Questions to ask yourself during development time:
When are you going to implement this in your class? What will this problem solving process look like in your class? Specifics:
What questions will you use?How can you build this in your lesson plan?Develop the thinking script and product model.
Development
Objective: Teachers will connect thinking and problem solving and develop a lesson incorporating both the process and the product.

Closure: Share with a non-content partner how you will
implement problem solving into your lessons and classroom this week.
