 * lsacker || 8:02 PM || #pypchat hi all Layla here from Melbourne. PYP chat will wake me up after a hot working day. ||
 * tgaletti || 8:03 PM || RT @whatedsaid: Let's start with a tough one! Q1 1. What is thinking? #pypchat ||
 * NicolineKD1 || 8:03 PM || While waiting 4 #pypchat I am reading, enjoying and inspired visible thinking blogs by @whatedsaid and rblog re:research by@DwyerTeacher ||
 * tgaletti || 8:03 PM || @whatedsaid maybe some schools got off early for Lunar New Year #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:03 PM || Let's start with a tough one! Q1 1. What is thinking? #pypchat ||
 * brittgow || 8:04 PM || Hi all! Britt from Hawkesdale, Australia - Maths and science teacher in a small, rural school #pypchat ||
 * NicolineKD1 || 8:04 PM || A1 Yesterday a kindergarten student told me that he had a little man in his head, and sometimes he went to sleep! #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:05 PM || @DwyerTeacher Very hard, that's why there was silenceâ€¦ #pypchat :) ||
 * lindawollan || 8:05 PM || A1 I think that thinking involves reflection, synthesis of knowledge #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:05 PM || A1. thinking is inquiring, wondering, asking questions, searching, stumbling (a hard thing to define!)â€¦.. #pypchat ||
 * lindawollan || 8:06 PM || @NicolineKD1 Love the idea of a little man :) #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:06 PM || @whatedsaid I'm thinking right now, but I can't tell you what I am doingâ€¦. just searching for connections? Looking for new ideas? #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:06 PM || RT @DwyerTeacher: A1. thinking is inquiring, wondering, asking questions, searching, stumbling (a hard thing to define!)â€¦.. #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:07 PM || @lindawollan @NicolineKD1 It's hard when you have to think quickly and the little man is dozing :) #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:07 PM || Combining ideas, looking for new pathways, challenging my assumptionsâ€¦ #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:07 PM || RT @whatedsaid: @DwyerTeacher And sorting, sifting old ideas? Making connections? #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:07 PM || @DwyerTeacher And sorting, sifting old ideas? Making connections? #pypchat ||
 * lsacker || 8:08 PM || #pypchat The capacity we have to make sense of things to play to innovate all in our heads. What's a gift it is. ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:08 PM || Soâ€¦ Q2 What is VISIBLE thinking? #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:08 PM || @whatedsaid @DwyerTeacher ... considering, evaluating, reasoning, learning... #pypchat ||
 * MrFumar || 8:09 PM || #pypchat A1 Exploring thought ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:09 PM || A2 Being confused out loud! #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:09 PM || A2 Is it all the above but outside your head? :) #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:09 PM || RT @whatedsaid: Soâ€¦ Q2 What is VISIBLE thinking? #pypchat ||
 * MrFumar || 8:10 PM || #pypchat A2 Having self awareness of your thought process ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:10 PM || There is a collective sense to visibility #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:10 PM || RT @tgaletti: A2. When we make the processes our mind goes through visible to others, in words, images, sounds, artifacts etc. #pypchat ||
 * SarahHHK || 8:10 PM || Hi #pypchat sorry I'm a bit lateâ€¦ will try to do a quick catch up ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:10 PM || I think visible part has something with how our ideas bump into others ideas, and what happens when multiple ideas come in contact #pypchat ||
 * NicolineKD1 || 8:10 PM || A1 Connecting ideas, generating new ones, sifting, sorting, highlighting networked ideas, building networks, dissecting networks.#pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:10 PM || A2. When we make the processes our mind goes through visible to others, in words, images, sounds, artifacts etc. #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:11 PM || @lindawollan or could you say that visible thinking is a precondition to share learning ? #pypchat ||
 * lsacker || 8:11 PM || #pypchat then we take the thinking out, share it, question it, grow it see it with others ||
 * lindawollan || 8:11 PM || Visible thinking involves some metacognition and sharing #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:11 PM || @DwyerTeacher Yes, they can only do all that if they are visible #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:12 PM || A3. Allows others to follow these processes and to engage with our learning. Allows us to sort out what we are learning #pypchat ||
 * lsacker || 8:12 PM || @MrFumar #pypchat what is the difference visible thinking and inside head thinking ? ||
 * tgaletti || 8:12 PM || RT @whatedsaid: Q3. What is the value of making thinking visible? #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:12 PM || Q3. What is the value of making thinking visible? #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:13 PM || @DwyerTeacher beautiful! #pypchat ||
 * deonscanlon || 8:13 PM || #pypchat A3 when thinking is visible, we get to the crux of learning ||
 * brittgow || 8:13 PM || A2. Expressing our ideas (text, images, art, sculpture) so others can 'see' our thought processes? #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:13 PM || @whatedsaid By sharing a thought with others (visible) you are putting that thought into a new space, and that changes the thought.#pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:14 PM || @tgaletti Is it? I'm not even sure to makes sense! It creates a potential for the thought to grow that not possible in your head #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:14 PM || Specifically, what is the value of making it visible in the classroom? #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:14 PM || @lindawollan I think that only by making our thinking visible can others truly engage and understand our learning. #pypchat ||
 * deonscanlon || 8:14 PM || Btw, good evening (?) #pypchat from Tasmania! ||
 * MrFumar || 8:14 PM || @lsacker visible thinking involves sharing, recording, action #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:14 PM || @deonscanlon Deonnn! Hi and welcome to #pypchat ||
 * lsacker || 8:14 PM || @tgaletti #pypchat yup it's that sharing that makes the difference . ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:15 PM || @DwyerTeacher @lsacker Think about how we bounce and grow our thinking together #pypchat ||
 * haileyj45 || 8:15 PM || A3 builds understanding of processes we undergo whn thnkng, builds confidence 2 take risks in thinking &amp; move beyond what we know #pypchat ||
 * deonscanlon || 8:15 PM || #pypchat A3 visible thinking makes learning more communal and opens up greater opportunities for questioning and deeper understanding ||
 * tgaletti || 8:15 PM || A3. Another benefit is that it is a great assessment tool for the teacher. Focus in learning should be on the process. #pypchat ||
 * lsacker || 8:15 PM || @deonscanlon #pypchat what if the others we share with are not thinking. Guess that is why we need a community of thinkers ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:15 PM || RT @tgaletti: @lindawollan I think that only by making our thinking visible can others truly engage and understand our learning. #pypchat ||
 * NicolineKD1 || 8:15 PM || A3: reveals misconceptions, reveals different avenues for inquiry, reveals past experiences, reveals ideas not accessed yet #pypchat ||
 * lindawollan || 8:15 PM || @tgaletti agree #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:16 PM || @DwyerTeacher it makes total sense! I often only really understand what I am doing when I am sharing my learning with someone else #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:16 PM || @whatedsaid @lsacker here at #pypchat, emails with others teachers, blogs comments, chats around the coffee maker, all ideas that can grow ||
 * lindawollan || 8:16 PM || communal wrestling with ideas #pypchat ||

 * whatedsaid || 8:18 PM || Collaboration is built on visible thinking.. or is it the other way around? #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:18 PM || RT @DwyerTeacher: @whatedsaid @lsacker here at #pypchat, emails with others teachers, blogs comments, chats around the coffee maker, all ... ||
 * deonscanlon || 8:18 PM || @lsacker #pypchat you can lead a horse to water...! Hopefully, the more thinking that is visibly and actively shared, the more it catches on ||
 * SarahHHK || 8:19 PM || RT @tgaletti: @kviloria welcome to #pypchat :) ||
 * tgaletti || 8:19 PM || @kviloria welcome to #pypchat :) ||
 * haileyj45 || 8:19 PM || A3 models thnking &amp; metacogn 4 others, empowering, frees inhibitions &amp; unlocks mind, highlights strenths &amp;wknesses, can re think #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:20 PM || @whatedsaid yes potential. depends on open mindedness of the producer of the thought #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:20 PM || Q4. How do you create a culture of thinking in the classroom? #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:21 PM || @whatedsaid Make it explicit, orient attention to it, value it, model it, celebrate itâ€¦ #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:21 PM || If you are new here, the Qs are just a guide. Feel free to engage, respond, ask, backtrack.. in any way you like #pypchat ||

 * SarahHHK || 8:22 PM || @whatedsaid A4 there has to be trust between students and teachers that thoughts will be respected #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:22 PM || A4. Model it! Thinking and wondering out loud #pypchat ||
 * lindawollan || 8:22 PM || First has to be a culture of safety and sharing #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:23 PM || @SarahHHK @whatedsaid I think it also takes practice. It won't work from Day 1 but needs time and commitment #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:23 PM || @lindawollan but also a culture of risk taking #pypchat ||
 * haileyj45 || 8:23 PM || A4 scaffolding, asking explicit questions, split screen, safe environment, modelling, doing metacog aloud value it practice it #pypchat ||
 * lsacker || 8:23 PM || @DwyerTeacher #pypchat or thought producer knowing when they are holding tight to a thought and even if hard letting go. Not always easy ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:23 PM || One of the most powerful (neglected ) factors is TIME for thinking. Tchrs often repeat or rephrase (or panic) if no response to Q! #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:23 PM || like here at #pypchat RT @lindawollan: First has to be a culture of safety and sharing #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:23 PM || RT @SarahHHK: @whatedsaid A4 there has to be trust between students and teachers that thoughts will be respected #pypchat ||
 * LindyBuckley1 || 8:24 PM || #pypchat Hi from Jakarta. A4 Modelling thinking is first way. Thinking out loud so sts hear what it sounds like and looks like. ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:24 PM || @tgaletti @SarahHHK I agree, but some teachers have a talent for developing it quite quickly. I'm interested in exploring that #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:24 PM || @lsacker Very hard. We treat our thoughts like our own creations, and we struggle to let go of them #pypchat ||
 * lindawollan || 8:24 PM || RT @DwyerTeacher: @lindawollan but also a culture of risk taking #pypchat yes! ||
 * tgaletti || 8:24 PM || RT @SarahHHK: if we are expecting Ss to do this, we as teachers should be doing it too! #pypchat ||

 * tgaletti || 8:25 PM || @LindyBuckley1 hi Lindy, nice to see you on #pypchat :) ||
 * haileyj45 || 8:25 PM || @whatedsaid #pypchat agree - time to think and frame thoughts wonderings, wait be patient ||
 * jennysfen || 8:26 PM || Hi #pypchat - sorry I'm late. Where are we at? ||

 * LindyBuckley1 || 8:26 PM || @tgaletti Hi Tanja., almost missed it again! #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:26 PM || @LindyBuckley1 Hi Lindy, I agree. Talking about your own thinking and including students in the process #pypchat ||
 * SarahHHK || 8:27 PM || @CBrodders thanks for the link - looks interesting #pypchat ||
 * hurleyinchina || 8:27 PM || I've found with my exp with G2 &amp; 4, students need to practice it often &amp; in many diff situations. #pypchat ||
 * lsacker || 8:27 PM || #pypchat are there ever thoughts or ways of thinking that are not productive ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:27 PM || Give students the chance to think out loud and explore their thought, they come up with such great stuff! Celebrate their ideas #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:27 PM || @jennysfen How to create a culture of thinking in classroom #pypchat ||
 * CBrodders || 8:27 PM || Great Research on visible thinking in early childhood classrooms ||
 * kviloria || 8:28 PM || Most kids think but are not aware that they are thinking. So it also takes reflection and looking back. #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:28 PM || @lsacker Jokingâ€¦ being dismissive is a good way to stop thinking in its tracks ;) ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:28 PM || @hurleyinchina Hi Eileen! True and yet.. very young kids can express their thinking. Does school knock it out of them? #pypchat ||
 * kviloria || 8:28 PM || Re: time, I agree. Thinking takes time, even for adults. Its a process that takes strategizing. #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:28 PM || @lsacker NO! ;) #pypchat ||
 * CBrodders || 8:29 PM || Resources on Visible Thinking curated in service of #PYPchat http://t.co/gy1Zw9vF ||
 * LindyBuckley1 || 8:29 PM || #pypchat Lots Knee to Knee, Eye to Eye. Yes risktaking is a big part ||
 * lsacker || 8:29 PM || @CBrodders thanks colleen great link #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:29 PM || @kviloria That's why I like to give kids (and adults!) time to write down their thoughts before anyone starts to share #pypchat ||
 * GlobalJanner || 8:29 PM || Can I ask a question #pypchat - how much of the learning in your schools/classrooms in completely child initiated? ||
 * jennysfen || 8:30 PM || @kviloria I agree. As need time and support to let their thoughts wander and grow - to intermingle with others' thoughts #pypchat ||
 * hurleyinchina || 8:30 PM || @whatedsaid #pypchat I think it sure can! It doesn't seem to take long to get them thinking again with dedicated practice. ||
 * LindyBuckley1 || 8:30 PM || @lsacker that's a very good question. need to think....#pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:31 PM || @whatedsaid @kviloriaagree, but is hard, some people are external processors and need to think out loud, others need private #pypchat ||
 * LindyBuckley1 || 8:31 PM || @kviloria Yes. The thinking isn't new. It's the articulation of what is happening when we think that's new #pypchat ||
 * lsacker || 8:31 PM || @GlobalJanner #pypchat giant question ||
 * jacbalen || 8:32 PM || Are you joining #nf10for10 on Feb 19? Let us know with a quick tweet! http://t.co/RJ8h8tlJ #kinderchat #pypchat ||
 * lsacker || 8:32 PM || @LindyBuckley1 #pypchat yup,how you sit and look at each other is part of the culture, ||
 * tgaletti || 8:32 PM || RT @LindyBuckley1: @kviloria Yes. The thinking isn't new. It's the articulation of what is happening when we think that's new #pypchat ||

 * jennysfen || 8:33 PM || #pypchat sometimes when asked what we think we're being asked for a 'correct answer'-that can stop thinking-at least creative thinking ||
 * CBrodders || 8:33 PM || Digging into this work with @kellimeeker - PZ's Thinking routines and providing time for kids to go back to their work is key #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:33 PM || @GlobalJanner Let's make it a whole #pypchat topic for next time? ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:34 PM || @jennysfen Guess whats in the teachers headâ€¦ evaluative listening is useful, but it is limiting #pypchat http://t.co/bUVm4zXy ||
 * jennysfen || 8:34 PM || #pypchat sorry for my delays - Internet is down &amp; having to chat on the phone is a challenge for me! ||
 * NicolineKD1 || 8:34 PM || RT @jennysfen: #pypchat sometimes when asked what we think we're being asked for a 'correct answer'-that can stop thinking-at least crea ... ||
 * tgaletti || 8:34 PM || @jennysfen because the "thinking" then is geared towards the product and not the process. Ss need to know we value the process #pypchat ||
 * kviloria || 8:34 PM || @whatedsaid Do u think some kids may be 'afraid' to think?! Sometimes u just cnt gey any answer. Even if the task is open. #pypchat ||
 * LindyBuckley1 || 8:34 PM || @DwyerTeacher @whatedsaid But even if you prefer to think inside, learning to identify what you are doing is good #pypchat ||
 * CBrodders || 8:34 PM || @DwyerTeacher @whatedsaid We're going to try and use voice thread as a means to show kids the progression of their thinking #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:34 PM || @jennysfen It's called "Guess what's in the teacher's head", a game many teachers play #pypchat ||
 * hurleyinchina || 8:34 PM || There are many ways to make thinking visible &amp; still honour diff learners #pypchat ||
 * markshillitoe || 8:35 PM || Uniting a curriculum through one work of art. Launched with visible thinking at The Hamburger Bahnhof,Berlin http://t.co/a4IY5Rzr #pypchat ||
 * lsacker || 8:35 PM || #pypchat I see myself as a messy thinker. Always envious of those who see the heart and don't wind all over the place ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:35 PM || Q5. What resources have you used/found that have aided your visible thinking journey? #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:35 PM || @kviloria No, I don't. But they might some training/practice just like in any other difficult activity #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:36 PM || @lsacker Maybe you should use the thinking routines to help refine your thinkingâ€¦ #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:36 PM || @LindyBuckley1 @whatedsaid Absolutely! We need to be mindful of different styles and how to help each child based on their own styl #pypchat ||
 * hurleyinchina || 8:36 PM || @kviloria @whatedsaid They need lots of practice to feel comfortable with making thinking visible. #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:36 PM || RT @whatedsaid: A5 I'm always 'selling' the book Making Thinking Visible by Ritchhart et al, but it really is essential reading! #pypchat ||

 * DwyerTeacher || 8:37 PM || Here are some strategies from VT the book and some of my own. https://t.co/1yrKSjP9 #pypchat ||
 * NicolineKD1 || 8:37 PM || @whatedsaid I could not agree more!! #pypchat ||
 * CBrodders || 8:37 PM || @whatedsaid @kviloria Agreed. Why I love thinking routines - jump into the thinking again and again http://t.co/TPyhZw4p #pypchat ||
 * jennysfen || 8:37 PM || @tgaletti so agree! It's the process and helping students to articulate it. #pypchat ||
 * hurleyinchina || 8:38 PM || A5 Project Zero, Making Thinking Visible, VT YouTube videos, colleagues. #pypchat ||
 * GlobalJanner || 8:38 PM || For me? Continuous provision - the learners have the liberty to use whatever they like, whenever they like to explore their ideas #pypchat ||
 * SarahHHK || 8:38 PM || @whatedsaid thanks for the reminder - I bought the Ritchhart book ages ago and haven't read it yet! Just got it out to remind meâ€¦ #pypchat ||
 * CBrodders || 8:38 PM || @whatedsaid @kviloria Sometimes I think we also need to build a toolbox for kids to have language for describing thinking #pypchat ||
 * LindyBuckley1 || 8:39 PM || @DwyerTeacher #pypchat Thanks! ||

 * tgaletti || 8:40 PM || @jennysfen ... and that's where we come in. Providing them with the tools and skills to articulate their thoughts #pypchat ||
 * lsacker || 8:40 PM || @DwyerTeacher #pypchat you make an important point. We can develop our own thinking routines too, ||
 * hurleyinchina || 8:41 PM || I think it's best to just pick some routines and try them. Learn as you go &amp; track progress. #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:41 PM || @whatedsaid @jennysfen were on Q5, resources! #pypchat ||
 * SarahHHK || 8:41 PM || RT @jennysfen: A5 harvard's project 0 visible thinking website (on the wiki) I love the thinking routines #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:42 PM || Do you make thinking visible mostly through the written word, or orally, or both, or something else? #pypchat ||
 * jennysfen || 8:43 PM || A5 I also like the ideas in @kjinquiry 's book thinking frameworks (that might not be the right title,but I'll find a link) #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:43 PM || @hurleyinchina But important not to see the routines just as activities, or worse as worksheets. Need to build culture of thinking #pypchat ||

 * jennysfen || 8:48 PM || @whatedsaid this looks good - I'd not heard if this one - will add it to my growing reading list. #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:48 PM || @DwyerTeacher Q6. How do you promote and encourage a school-wide thinking culture? #pypchat ||
 * hurleyinchina || 8:48 PM || @jennysfen @whatedsaid I don't see routines that way. Adapt &amp; use them in many diff ways. Not worksheets. #pypchat ||
 * LindyBuckley1 || 8:49 PM || A6 Use the thinking strategies at staff meetings #pypchat ||
 * GlobalJanner || 8:49 PM || #pypchat it seems that 1. practitioners look for a thinking theory to progress with, then build capacity in staff to discuss it #pypchat ||
 * arroyo24 || 8:49 PM || @whatedsaid It is very early, but a looong way to school with no car! It should be fun anyway. #pypchat ||
 * jennysfen || 8:49 PM || @tgaletti @dwyerteacher @kjinquiry no - but that's a good one, too! :-) #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:50 PM || RT @LindyBuckley1: A6 Use the thinking strategies at staff meetings #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:50 PM || @hurleyinchina Yes, that sounds like a good strategy #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:50 PM || @arroyo24 @tgaletti @jennysfen @kjinquiry THIS ONE! http://t.co/muSs5pqR #pypchat Take a Momentâ€¦ it has 40 different templates, good ideas ||
 * lsacker || 8:50 PM || @whatedsaid @dwyerteacher #pypchat stop national testing for a start. wishful thinking. ||
 * hurleyinchina || 8:50 PM || ...and want to learn more #pypchat ||
 * hurleyinchina || 8:50 PM || A6 This is why I advocate to just start. Our working group will act as mentors to others who hear about what we're doing...#pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:51 PM || A6 just get really excited when deep and meaningful thinking is going on, and the kids feed off the energy, it is valued #pypchat ||
 * GlobalJanner || 8:51 PM || A6 - senior leadership buy-in is a MUST #pypchat ||

 * NicolineKD1 || 8:51 PM || A6, Use the VTR in staff meetings, PD. introducing one VTR at a time, give colleagues time to experiment, reflect and refine. #pypchat ||
 * hurleyinchina || 8:52 PM || A6 Of course without admin commitment it won't go far. #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:52 PM || RT @SSGilchrist: @whatedsaid @DwyerTeachermust be modelled by all. #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:52 PM || @lsacker When I planned a unit with Yr 5 just before Naplan test, they said no thinking skills required for next few weeks! #pypchat ||
 * SSGilchrist || 8:52 PM || @whatedsaid @DwyerTeachermust be modelled by all. #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:53 PM || A6 Another way is to provoke staff thinking by sharing inspiring blog posts that model reflective practice @DwyerTeacher #pypchat ||
 * GlobalJanner || 8:53 PM || @whatedsaid @lsacker Holy socks Batman! #pypchat ||
 * tgaletti || 8:53 PM || @SSGilchrist @whatedsaid @DwyerTeacher but it's okay even for a small group to start and then promote by sharing with others #pypchat ||
 * NicolineKD1 || 8:53 PM || A6 Make the routines part of your school's vernacular. If we can do it with profiles, attitudes, concepts etc. Why not VTR's. #pypchat ||
 * kviloria || 8:54 PM || Being open to every one's ideas and having an accepting environment- that there isnt just one way in arriving at an answer. #pypchat ||
 * kviloria || 8:54 PM || Differentiated tasks help promote thinking in school. Also exposing to graphic organizers. Asking provocative questions. #pypchat ||
 * arroyo24 || 8:54 PM || â€œ@LindyBuckley1: A6 Use the thinking strategies at staff meetings #pypchatâ€ This is a good strategy, we do this as well. ||
 * hurleyinchina || 8:54 PM || Our current group only has 4 teachers. #pypchat ||

 * LindyBuckley1 || 8:56 PM || @whatedsaid @DwyerTeacher Yes. I send out daily "1 Minute PD" to all our staff - links to inspiring blog posts. #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:56 PM || Wow! Where did the time go? #pypchat ||

 * GlobalJanner || 8:57 PM || @whatedsaid Ahhhhh assessment... #pypchat ||
 * kviloria || 8:57 PM || I always ask myself how can my kids think if I dont think. Its the same thing for the profiles and attitudes. #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:57 PM || @LindyBuckley1 @DwyerTeacher Do you have any people who don't want that stuff cluttering their inboxes? :-D #pypchat ||
 * hurleyinchina || 8:57 PM || @tgaletti Yes, that's what I mean. Nothing wrong with starting small with passionate educators. #pypchat ||

 * whatedsaid || 8:58 PM || @GlobalJanner Honestlyâ€¦ the visible thinking is an assessment itself. But people love this question! #pypchat ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:59 PM || @whatedsaid I'll help, but I'm not very reliable #pypchat ||
 * kviloria || 8:59 PM || Also, i love trying out our class engagements with my colleages. It helps us knw how tasks make us think. #pypchat ||
 * whatedsaid || 8:59 PM || This chat doesn't end till we get at least 2 volunteers to join the behind scenes team of #pypchat. Minimum effort for max gain! ||
 * DwyerTeacher || 8:59 PM || Focusing on thinking is a shift from focusing on content, changes the way a classroom looks and feels. #pypchat ||
 * hurleyinchina || 8:59 PM || A8 Take lots of photos, videos. Keep all their "thinking" samples. See how it changes over time &amp; with practice. #pypchat ||
 * lsacker || 8:59 PM || @whatedsaid @dwyerteacher #pypchat agree this one has become my favourite strategy, both of your blogposts are a brilliant resource ||

 * kviloria || 9:01 PM || I find self-reflection and peer feedback good ways to assess thinking. #pypchat ||
 * GlobalJanner || 9:01 PM || @whatedsaid Pulling your leg! I guess it depends on which thinking matrix/system you are working with - assessments must match it #pypchat ||
