6 Course 102. A Language for Learning You are here. In the introduction, we list the instructional objectives and set expectations for the structure and navigation of the module.

14 Bubble Maps Guiding Questions:? Bubble Maps Cognitive Vocabulary How would you describe this noun or pronoun? How would you describe second graders? What qualities does this person or concept have? How does this noun or pronoun look, taste, feel, and sound? What are the properties of this thing? (Previous map will fade into student example) Back to main map This second grade example clearly shows how the guiding question led the thinking for this map development. The adjectives could have come from the teacher (as a rubric of sorts) or from individual responses in a whole group setting. You can even have your students complete the sentence 2nd graders at our school are. Guiding student responses with this sentence frame often helps them use adjectives in their responses. The stars with student names that have been added to the frame of reference are a great application idea. The teacher may have asked the students Who helped us understand what being helpful means? or Which second graders have been very respectful today? Language for Learning

31 Apply/Analyze/Assess Hi. Maybe you can help me? I m teaching a unit on Abraham Lincoln, using a variety of informational texts. I thought I d start the unit by asking the students to tell me everything they know about the President before reading anything. Later I will have them check their prior knowledge against the information they learned from their reading. Which map would be best to have them think about what they already know?

33 Hybrid Model MOD #1 (4 WEEK CYCLE) ALONE - Take complete MOD #1 with reflections/notes, questions - take to PLC IN PLC - Discuss notes and questions from online course IN PLC - Develop lesson applications of module concept ALONE IN CR WITH COACHING SUPPORT - Implement Thinking Maps applications with students IN PLC s - Examine student work and assess impact of module concept MOD #2 MOD #3 This entire process should take about 4 weeks and should be constantly supported by key information from the course, text references found in the Language for Learning textbook and coaching from a Thinking Maps trained trainer on your campus.
34 Next Steps Please take the following to your next PLC (or small group) meeting: 1. Any notes or questions you have written down during this course 2. Your application ideas 3. Answers to the Reflection Questions 4. Curriculum materials you will need to apply this course information to upcoming lessons So that you will be able to: 1. Discuss new understandings. 2. Discuss ways to model the use of the correct cognitive vocabulary during the development of these maps with your students. 3. Create lesson plans applying the cognitive vocabulary to your Thinking Map uses. 4. Assess student use and understanding of the cognitive vocabulary
35 Reflect Complete this map and take it with you to your PLC or small group meeting. Based on the information you learned in this course and on the information referenced in your textbook A Language for Learning (your Frame of Reference) and By identifying the influences of your grade level and/or content area (your Frame of Reference), Identify what actions you can take in the classroom that will cause to you emphasize or improve your focus on the critical thinking and cognitive vocabulary as you and your students construct the Circle, Bubble, Double Bubble and Tree Maps. Then identify the anticipated effects of this new emphasis on the language of critical thinking with these maps. Possible Causes Identify the grade level and/or content you teach. Possible Causes Enter your own text Possible Effects You emphasize or improve your focus on the critical thinking and cognitive vocabulary of the Circle, Bubble, Double Bubble and Tree Maps. Enter your own text Enter your own text and drag to the right Course 102 A Language for Learning pages... Possible Effects Enter your own text and drag to the right Save as PDF Print
36 Reflect Possible Causes Student work is displayed in the classroom and the thinking process is identified and listed. You post examples of the cognitive vocabulary under the map posters. Possible Effects You teach students the cognitive vocabulary for each map. You ask students questions like: Which map would you use if you wanted to classify your ideas? You say Let s think about all of the similarities and differences between these two things as we make the Double Bubble Map. You emphasize or improve your focus on the critical thinking and cognitive vocabulary of the Circle, Bubble, Double Bubble and Tree Maps. Students understand that the maps are about critical thinking, not just making a map. Students develop independence with the maps. Critical thinking becomes more concrete for all learners.
37 Course 102. A Language for Learning Empowering students to be more skillful thinkers, to have the tools to be more critical in their thinking is a major goal of Thinking Maps, Inc. Equipping students with the language of thinking is essential to their effective communication and collaboration and to them becoming successful and productive 21st Century citizens. My Paper You may now exit the module or continue reviewing.
