This blog briefly outlines my journey this year in a teacher inquiry into thinking. To improve my competence in the understandings and the practice of the thinking competency. This will then improve outcomes for students by lifting their understandings and giving them skills and tools to help develop the key competency of thinking.

Thinkers Keys - BIKES
We have used the alphabet key, the what if key and the BAR key with our bikes inquiry.I noticed very enthusiastic learners with these keys. The alphabet key was worked on collaboratively, along with the What if? key. The BAR key was done individually.
Thinkers keys allows children to be a little way out, to be creative. There appears to be very strong engagement in these type of thinking activities

Hi all,
