At last! A book that reveals what thinking looks like. Think you can't see someone's thinking? Think again! This book reveals what happens when the normally private, hidden and undefined act of thinking is transformed into one that is public, available and explicit. Thinking Skills and Eye Q is the world's first lexicon of visual tools - once tooled up, you can transform teaching and learning in your classroom. Thinking Skills and Eye Cue is a breakthrough in thinking. Ironically, there has been lots of fuzzy thinking about thinking skills. Caviglioli, Harris and Tindall, though, are very clear about what thinking is. In this book, they link thinking skills with visual tools and the genres that pupils encounter in every lesson. The book provides a theory of learning that oozes practicality, common sense and relevance at all Key Stages. Thinking Skills and Eye Q is a smart tool kit, for transforming teaching and learning. This book shows how to use 40 different visual tools to: infuse the teaching of the five National Curriculum Thinking Skills into subject teaching develop writing skills in all six genres show pupils how to be independent and creative thinkers and learners make speaking and listening, questioning and responding an integral part of all lessons raise IQ

The central purpose of this book is to help teachers organise ideas through the use of graphic organisers. Over 35 such word-diagrams are: organised into a system to help select the right tool for the job; described for rapid understanding of their strengths; and explained for step-by-step construction. Over 50 teachers each have a double-page spread in which they reveal how they use them in their teaching — across the full age range and span of subjects. A further section of the book demonstrates how to use these word-diagrams most effectively by partnering them with other teaching strategies, such as retrieval practice, writing, speaking and listening, teacher explanations, advance organisers, scaffolding, remote learning and more. The pages are illustrated to the same quality and quantity in Oliver’s previous book, Dual Coding with Teachers, its natural companion. A must-have textbook for every teacher that transcends contemporary ideological allegiances and fads.

- How effective school partnerships can enhance the quality of teaching and learning, and the creation of more vibrant, cost-effective provision. - How business and industry can take on a more strategic and structured role in the construction of meaningful learning experiences. - How high-quality local authorities can foster personalized provision in their own area. The success of personalizing learning in schools depends on the effective working together of all parties that form the education system. This book examines the roles and responsibilities of the key stakeholders: national government, local authorities, partnerships of schools and the world of business and industry. The authors expose how the current system fails a significant number of young people and the economic well-being of the nation, and present a realistic alternative perspective based upon examples of current practice at local and national level. This growing base of evidence signposts how the learning experiences of students can be truly transformed through innovative and effective teaching and learning.

The theory of multiple intelligences (MI) shows that there is much more to intelligence than high IQ, good spelling or quick mental maths - in fact there's a whole variety of ways to be clever, including musically, verbally, interpersonally, kinaesthetically and naturalistically. Multiple Intelligences is a powerful tool that helps you to appreciate and enrich the talents of all your learners, whatever their age. Creating an understanding of MI in schools has been shown to improve pupils' self-esteem, self-motivation and independence, and to help underachievers realize their potential. The book includes: - explanations of the different intelligences - activities to explore MI with your learners - practical ways to build MI into everyday teaching - how to use MI to personalize learning - creating an MI-friendly learning environment - case studies showing successful MI practice. This accessible guide gives a clear introduction to MI and provides concrete examples of how you can use it in your teaching.

Think it — Map it! Is the most relevant, practical and helpful book yet written on mapping techniques in the classroom. By showing you what pupils' thinking looks like, this book gives you the necessary insights to integrate literacy, thinking skills and accelerated learning in your classrooms. Organized into three sections, it explains: • WHY model mapping is so effective • WHEN model mapping can be effectively applied • HOW to effectively learn and teach model mapping. Think it — Map it! Is packed with case studies and maps from schools that have taken the principles and promises of the authors' MapWise training course and their best-selling book by the same name and turned them into winning classroom strategies. The examples clearly show how primary, comprehensive, grammar, nursery and special school teachers have turned theory into practice — often with amazing results. In this book you will discover how these schools have applied mapping to: • literacy • thinking skills • subject explanation • revision • collaborative learning • extending the gifted and talented • including pupils with special needs • formative assessment • displays • teacher planning • staff meetings • development planning... ... and very much more. What 'MapWise' schools have realized is that whenever thinking is involved, then model mapping is an appropriate and effective tool to use. This book moves schools on from the restricting way in which model mapping is often perceived and gives a clear overview of the reasons why this visual tool works so effectively for all types of learner — and teachers too. Written in a clear and lively style, Think it — Map it! is sure to become the classic text on mapping in schools. With bite-size chapters and with a vast array of wonderful maps produced by children, this book will excite and educate all staff currently working in schools. '... we cannot navigate physically or intellectually without a map... So the learner needs a map that will always let him or her find their way to what they already know and enables them to navigate from there to their desired destination. This book is fundamentally about how learning works and how teaching can be transformed when it grasps and respects some cardinal principles — about facts and knowledge, about memory and retrieval, about language and thinking, about individual and social learning. This book sheds new light on some deep truths about peer learning, about talking your way to meaning, about learning as liberation from a ruthlessly lockstep progression through the curriculum. It is a salutary reminder in an age of attainments targets, SATS, key stages and value added that learning is what schools are for and it is what makes teachers want to teach. This book is a real treasure trove of good ideas and sound pedagogic principles.' Professor John MacBeath, Chair of Educational Leadership, University of Cambridge

Countdown to Non-Fiction Writing is a comprehensive and flexible resource which you can use in different ways. It includes: 37 stand-alone modules which cover all aspects of writing and understanding non-fiction texts, including the nature of language, logical thinking, recognising ‘facts’ and planning; A countdown flowchart provides an overview, showing how modules are linked and allowing teachers and pupils to track their progress; Photocopiable activity sheets for each module that show how to make decisions and solve problems which writers face on the journey to a finished piece of work; Teachers’ notes for each module with tips and guidance, including how modules can be used in the classroom, links to other modules and curriculum links, and advice on helping and guiding pupils in their writing; A self-study component so pupils can make their own progress through the material. This option gives young writers a sense of independence in thinking about their work and through offering a scaffolding of tasks, encourages confident and effective writing; 'Headers' for each module showing where along the 'countdown path' you are at that point; Contents page for quick access to particular modules and relevant aspects of writing. In short, Countdown to Non-Fiction Writing saves valuable planning time and gives you all the flexibility you need in helping pupils to prepare for, understand, and write non-fiction. The structure of the book allows teachers to utilise the modules for ‘self-study’, as a longer programme following the ‘countdown’ structure, or to dip into the book for individual lesson activities and ideas to fit in with wider programmes of study.

Improving teaching is the key to genuine and sustainable school improvement. Improvement involves persuading teachers to change and develop their practice but, as anyone who has ever tried will testify, this is far from easy. The focus of Tweak to Transform is what head teachers and school leaders can do to manage the change process and improve the quality of teaching in a school. Essentially, Tweak to Transform is a practical handbook that seeks to address three questions. What do we know about change? What do we know about learning? What do we know about leading and managing the improvement process? While there is no single successful recipe for improving teaching in a school, this book attempts to establish some key principles. The result is a collection of thoughts, activities strategies and models that have been developed and successfully implemented in a wide range of schools. >
