Incorporate Higher Levels of Critical Thinking in the ELA 8 Environment

Incorporate Higher Levels of Critical Thinking in the ELA 8 Environment

My action plan is currently focusing on including questions for deeper understanding (Blooms Taxonomy) in both Science and ELA 8.  I wanted to also focus on using the 6 Thinking Hats of Debono alongside Blooms Taxonomy question in ELA to guide but not direct discussion on specific topics (Black Negative, Yellow Positive, Blue control, etc.) as well as integrating basic technology into PE games (Heart rate monitors, mileage/stepper counters during activity to measure distance covered, etc.) with a focus on eventually using more in depth tech in PE (QR codes, etc.)
