Our+Visit+to+ICS

Here are some of the ideas and pictures from our visit to ICS:


 * SUGGESTIONS OF ROUTINES TO TRY**

Colour, Symbol, Image This was on display on A4 sheets connected to literature in one classroom. (Could just use colour and image for younger students. BB)

Claim, Support, Question
 * Worked well in mathematics, justify strategies and explanations
 * Worked well with younger students when the teacher makes the claim and the students come up with the support.

'Turn and Talk' from Stephanie Harvey (Similar to Think, Pair, Share) and Inquiry Circles

See, Think, Wonder
 * Worked well in PE e.g. observation of games, considering communication, using space......

3 2 1 Bridge
 * Worked well in PE when introducing new concepts and/ or units

Questions Flap Students generate questions. One question goes under the flap. When you have a spare moment, students decide if they agree or not or if it's a good question, but with reasons why they think this way.
