The ABC of thinking -
Thinking skills in the primary classroom

Our partnership with an international educational charity has taken us into many different parts of the world and our thinking skills program is now used by over 50,000 teachers worldwide and expanding rapidly.

Why?

Because the thinking tools we use are VISUAL thinking tools and as 60% of the brain is dedicated to visual processing the tools are easy to use and include in the school curriculum.

Initially the thinking tools are taught to teachers the students are then taught using content or a superbly animated CD program to quickly embed the tools into the thinking brain, enabling students to transition them from content into personal behaviours and social settings, they will learn how to:

Identify the key ideas or issues within a lesson or text.
Sequence what they have learned into a logical order for improved understanding.
Expose and check the validity of assumptions.
Clarify problems and create their own thoughtful arguments and solutions.
Set their own goals and develop a logical plan for achieving them.
Resolve conflicts.
Know how to predict the consequence of their own actions and therefore see why they should control any negative behaviour.

Whether to small groups, schools or educational bodies we can provide an effective, cost efficient thinking skills program into your school.
