level. I have found that with the use of the strategies students are more apt to go deeper in
their explanations.
I have applied thinking routines to my unit instruction. For example, I use the
step inside strategy when observing the historic photograph of Florence Owens
Thompson (a mother living in a Hoovervilles during the Great Depression). I love this
strategy because it prompts students to think of a historic event through another persons
perspective. This requires a great deal of critical thinking and definitely prompts student
to make this thinking very visible.
I plan to continue using thinking routines in my lesson because I believe that they
are a key piece to effective, conceptual instruction and will allow students to practice
their critical thinking skills.
