New Classroom Poster for Thinking Skills

A new classroom poster is hot off the press! Download this (free) 18" x 24" poster, hang it on the wall of your classroom, and let the thinking begin. This offers a quick reminder of the Patterns of Thinking Method and guiding questions that let you infuse thinking skills into any lesson, any subject, any grade.

We've tweaked this poster many times over the past year. But when visiting classrooms, I noticed that many teachers made their own posters about the Patterns of Thinking Method (see if you can spot one in this video). What did all of these homemade classroom posters have in common? Guiding Questions in BIG TYPE.

One elementary school is hanging this poster on the wall of every classroom. That's bold thinking!
