@MissBethCross Although this is true, some students are capable of pulling something out of their butts to answer without understanding #cuwed370

[Lydia Rusch @Lydiajo13]

A4: Students will often answer without thinking, this question allows them to backtrack and think through their answer to explain #cuwed370

[Lydia Rusch @Lydiajo13]

@gjmatrix I don't have a specific example, but I think looking at any account of history, it is important to look at who is writing it #cuwed370

[Lydia Rusch @Lydiajo13]

@R_Ritchhart @Adapaa I agree, this allows students to stop and decide if they trust what they are reading #cuwed370

[Lydia Rusch @Lydiajo13]

A3: I think this strategy could apply to critical thinking skills when reading, deciding if as a student you trust the author #cuwed370

[Lydia Rusch @Lydiajo13]

A2: For English, I think "What makes you say that" and "Sentence-Phrase-Word" because they allow for deeper exploration of text #cuwed370

[Lydia Rusch @Lydiajo13]

@rachel_evelyn14 @Adapaa I agree that the focus is placed on results. I think this is because most people are looking for evidence of learning through them #cuwed370

[Lydia Rusch @Lydiajo13]

@Adapaa A1: Most teachers I had didn't focus on thinking routines. It was a one-sided process focused on the results #cuwed370
