Today the children and I were discussing the characteristics of a "good thinker." We brainstormed as many things as we could about what people who are 'good thinkers' do. Here is a list we made:
- good thinkers use strategies that we've learned in school (for example S.M.A.R.T. listening skills, Phonetic spelling skills, etc)
- good thinkers use their imagination
- good thinkers have a lot of knowledge: from reading, listening, learning, trying, and doing
- good thinkers are flexible: they are ready to make and try lots of solutions to solve a problem
- good thinkers make decisions using evidence
- good thinkers consider different points of view
- good thinkers ask questions
With such an incredible list of ideas I conclude that we are a classroom of 'Good Thinkers!'
