How do we encourage children to think deeply about the world in which they live?
Research-based and highly practical, this book provides guidance on how to develop creative and critical thinking through your classroom teaching.
Key coverage includes:
· Classroom-ready ideas to stimulate high-order thinking
· How to think critically and creatively across all areas of the curriculum
· Case studies from primary, secondary and special schools
· Philosophical approaches that give pupils the space to think and enquire
This is essential reading for anyone on university-led and schools-based primary and secondary initial teacher education courses including undergraduate (BEd, BA QTS), postgraduate (PGCE, SCITT), School Direct, Teach First and employment-based routes and also anyone training to work in early years settings.
′The case for teaching thinking skills and promoting creativity within a busy curriculum is clearly articulated throughout this comprehensive and informative book. From reflections on the rights and issues on the well-being of children through to a thoughtful consideration of their future employability the authors highlight the importance of making space for thinking skills and provide examples of innovative classroom activities for all areas of the curriculum.′
