Framing Critical Inquiry Questions & Building a Community of Thinkers, Quick Guides (like a magazine) from The Critical Thinking Consortium will be provided and used for these sessions.
2 After School Sessions (both must be attended to receive a release day):
February 12 & 19 from 3:15-4:00
2 TTOCs each: February 25, 27, March 4
In these sessions we will explore how to build a community of thinkers with practical guidance for teachers who want to use the power of critical, creative, and collaborative thinking to enrich their students' learning. Using the TC2 Building a Community of Thinkers resource, we will explore the value of a nurturing classroom of thinkers and outline steps towards achieving this goal.
During the release day elementary teachers will have the opportunity to focus on a question that is relevant for their context with a focus on one of the Social Studies curricular competencies.
