The routines, such as See, Think, Wonder, Looking Ten Times Two, Step Inside, Headlines, Creative Questions, and ESP+I (Experience / Struggles / Puzzles / Insights), offer structured ways to move learners from observation to interpretation, perspective taking, summarizing, curiosity, and reflection. Each routine is explained with its purpose, suggested questions, and tips for adaptation. The activities emphasize flexibility and encourage teachers to build these routines into their "thinking toolkit" for richer classroom discussions.

Students can rotate in groups, using the See, Think, Wonder routine at each station to record their observations, interpretations, and questions on sticky notes or a shared Padlet, reviewed here. After reading a story or historical event, have students "step inside" the mind of a character or figure. Next, they can write or record brief reflections from that person's perspective, describing their thoughts, feelings, and motivations. Using Creative Questions, students can brainstorm inquiry-based questions related to a class topic (e.g., "What would happen if...?" or "Why does this matter today?"). Post them on a question wall to inspire deeper research or writing projects.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
