Nice reflection by @rhwave2004 on some of the thinking routines in 'Making Thinking Visible', the book by @RonRitchhart. arithmeticplus.wordpress.com/2018/11/03/vis… First thing that I found really interesting was the type of images/stimuli that Rachel finds helpful for see-think-wonder. #ccotonline 
Next, Rachel offers a good way to scaffold 'I used to think, but now I think' that makes sense to me (Q for @rhwave2004 , What impacts does this kind of a reflection have on your classroom culture/student learning. Any?)
Oh, ok, I just spotted this benefit. This is great! (for the english teachers out there anyway...)
Currently reading @ronritchhart’s ‘Making Thinking Visible’. In it, he outlines a clever study (also by him) in which concept maps were used to elicit students’ understandings of what thinking is, and how it happens. #ccotonline (You'll like this @MandiB17)
Their premise was that if students are unable to articulate what makes effective thinking (would be curious to substitute 'thinking' for ‘learning’), it’s highly unlikely that they’ll be employing effective strategies when they’re attempting to make sense of concepts themselves.
Student responses broadly fell into four categories: Associative, emotional, meta, and strategic. Associative was things peripherally linked to thinking, such as where students are when they’re thinking (‘in maths class’). Emotional was affect related comments…
