How do you support deep thinking for your students? K Collier says, “One helpful strategy is providing students a visual that matches with question type and depth.” Dig into her anchor chart... with a clever spring time twist. 🌷

🌸 Surface level questions are quick to answer (think multiple choice or fill in the blank) and can be supported with easy to find text evidence.

🌸 Deep level questions are more complex (think constructed response) and require students to process the text through inferencing, analyzing, and critical thinking.

This week a teacher came to my room to pick up her kids. She came late and told the kids to hurry out of my classroom, a couple of students told her that they were cleaning. She turned around and told them: “Let’s go, Art is not important!” I was shot. 💔 Art is important to children because it fosters creativity, self-expression, and emotional development. Through art, children can explore their imagination and communicate ideas or feelings that may be difficult to express in words. It also enhances problem-solving and critical thinking skills, as they experiment with different techniques and materials. Additionally, art helps develop fine motor skills, boosts confidence, and encourages cultural awareness by exposing children to diverse forms of expression and perspectives. Engaging in art can also be a calming activity, promoting mindfulness and emotional well-being.

Observational drawing teaches children how to closely observe and analyze the world around them. It helps develop their attention to detail, improve hand-eye coordination, enhance concentration, and strengthen their understanding of shapes, proportions, and spatial relationships. By practicing observational drawing, children also learn how to translate what they see into two-dimensional forms, fostering creativity and critical thinking skills.
