Thinking Skills is an integral feature of the Foundation Stage. This resource includes 120 cross-curricular questions. Choose one question to display EVERY morning for the children and make it part of CT. This will encourage those weaker students to participate. You can choose several children to answer the question or the class as a whole. You can use this as part of your assessment, questions you should ask yourself- -Can children ask questions and express the need to find out more? - Are they self-critical? Do they accept suggestions from others? Are they open to challenge? -Can they sort, order and classify information? -Can they brainstorm? -Do they appear confident? This resource will develop a high quality thinking environment in the Early Years. It will enhance learning and enable quality thinking experiences. Included- 120 Questions in Powerpoint Format (I have also included the pdf, if you want to print and laminate you can) This resource can also be used for Year 1.

Included in this pack are 20 written tasks and 20 picture tasks – students that are able to read may use these cards then carry out the task, this can be done individually or as a group. Other students should be encouraged to guess what ‘character or animal’ the students are ‘acting’ out. They may use props, draw pictures (similar) and/or use non-verbal communication cues. This can be tricky with the Lower EYFS but after a few sessions, students become familiar with the concept and begin to really enjoy this! It is great for those students who may be ELL, using non-verbal communication is great for everyone! Includes picture cards only for those that are unable to read. I have used the picture cards during Circle Time (we choose a card and then we pick a book related to the card and/or think of a Nursery Rhyme). Enjoy this mini challenge pack! Includes 15 A4 Pages - 4 cards per slide. Check out the preview!
