'Learning how to think is, surely, what education is all about. As teachers, we have the crucial task of helping our children understand how to think effectively, and showing them how they can best use their incredible, amazing brains. With quality approaches to the teaching of thinking skills, learning becomes a wonderful and thrilling experience for our students, one that can and should last a lifetime.
Within this book you'll find lots of different information, ideas and approaches for developing your students' thinking skills. As with all my books, my aim here is to give you practical strategies for developing these skills, ones that you can actually put directly into use in your classroom. As well as offering you suggestions for exercises and activities, I also cover the organizational aspects of teaching thinking in a classroom setting. My aim is to give advice that will be applicable to teachers across the primary and secondary spectrum, and for those who are working in all different areas of the curriculum.'
