Enhance your teaching practice with our metacognition teacher’s prompt cards!
These question prompt cards aim to bring metacognitive questioning into your teaching practice. Each card has five questions that follow the general themes:
Grey - Before & During Tasks
Blue - After Tasks
Green - Metacognition & Metacognitive Skills
Yellow - Critical Thinking & Higher-Order Thought
Orange - Deep-Metacognition
There are twenty cards and a total of 100 individual metacognitive question prompts.
A teacher with these at their hand will find bringing metacognitive reflection through casual questioning very easy; this in turn will foster metacognitive thinking in their students.
Printing: These cards are meant to be printed 4 per page and then cut accordingly: this makes them a ‘pocket-tool’ for any educational practitioner. You can keep them as cards (perhaps laminating them) or, if you staple them together, you can make them into a useful booklet of metacognition question prompts quite easily!
This metacognition activity is brought to you by The Global Metacognition Institute (globalmetacognition.com)

-A concluding ‘One thing I am still uncertain about…’ post-it question.
Each session follows the same format, they can be:
-Used as revision sessions during a revision period of term-time leading up to exams

Contents and tasks may vary slightly between revision sessions. The cover photo is, however, a fair depiction of the contents of the lesson.
