It is assumed that every classroom in America supports the development of thinking skills. Truthfully, more often than not, these environments encourage passive learning: listening, memorizing, following directions, and regurgitating information. To promote active thinking a different culture must be established in which students are taught deep thinking strategies and encouraged to use them. This book chronicles a year in spent inculcating in students the skill and will to use the critical thinking techniques of questioning and connecting. Through the year, these 5th graders developed the ability and inclination to be more active, inquisitive, and curious learners.
