These ten worksheets are designed to accompany any main task or learning activity in lessons. They are suitable for teachers of any subject and as a whole-school resource. Please see the preview images. We’ve based the design around established metacognitive theories that emphasise four stages of metacognition: planning, monitoring, evaluation & regulation. These unique worksheets are our best yet: they help students “think about thinking” with direct reference to the learning activity they are engaged in. The pack contains ten different worksheet designs [see preview images]. When printed and cut: each worksheet is 1/3 of a page (double-sided) and serves as a powerful and time-efficient way to foster metacognition in students when they are completing a learning activity. The worksheets are suitable for teachers and students (11-16) of any subject. Metacognition is a powerful way to boost learning-power: regular use of these worksheets will help students to use metacognitive learning strategies habitually. The colourful double-sided designs look great in exercise books and it makes your work with metacognition & self-regulated learning very clear for others to see.

Meditation and mindfulness are central metacognitive skills: since metacognition is the personal reflection and exploration of thought and learning - what could be more direct that learning to carefully observe the operations of the mind through introspection? We view meditation as the ultimate form of ‘Deep Metacognition’. Our ‘Metacognitive Meditation Pack’ focuses on secular (non-religious) meditation techniques; the pack includes everything you need to bring meditation to your school and, unlike other meditation teaching resources, ours is focused on how meditation can enhance concentration, thought-regulation and learning. The download includes six resources: An Introduction to Meditation Meditation & Metacognition: How Meditation Can Boost Learning Using Meditation to Train Concentration Meditation & Gratitude: Improving Attitudes, Energy-Levels & Motivation Meditation Instructions (A Multi-Use Tool With Instructions for Six Different Types of Meditation) The Whole-School Meditation Poster Collection (Contains Ten Posters!) It is a useful tool not just for boosting metacognitive and learning power but also for enhancing your school’s PSHE and SMSC provisions. We offer a range of whole-school metacognition resources that aim to enhance metacognitive skills and strategies in students aged 11-16.

This PowerPoint included 101 debate prompts. It also contains a ‘randomiser’ slide so that debate topics can be selected randomly. Each prompt is designed to trigger reflection on a metacognition or learning-power issue, examples include: “A health body leads to a healthy mind” “It is possible to know too much” and “Everyone is born with an equal capacity for success in school.” Debates take an ‘agree or disagree’ format: students are asked to move from one side of the room to the other depending on their response to the statements that appear. This format allows teachers to foster debates and discussions between students, it can be helpful to ask students to justify their reasons and use sensible arguments. Questions you might ask include: “What is wrong with the other position in your view?”, “Why did you choose to stand where you’re standing?”, “Why do you think people disagree so much about this question?” It is best to encourage students to pick a side rather than float in the middle: but it can also be fun to allow students to change side as the debate progresses, so that students can try to persuade one another to move. This is a great resource to use at the end of lessons if you have a few minutes left, it can be used as an entire lesson. Thank you for looking at our resources!
