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!

Professionally designed for the new AQA Sociology GCSE specification (8192) taught from September 2017. Bundles of complete teaching materials for the new specification are available from June 2017. This download is offered freely. I will also be releasing revision sessions, booklets and key-word glossaries. This download includes 4 key-word lists taken from the specification: from each section of the specification.

The download comprises a FREE teacher training lesson/session that can be used 2-3 times with the same group or as a one-off. The aim of the session is to demonstrate techniques of structuring debates/discussions, inspiring P4C in classrooms, and fostering cross-curricular critical thinking. These activities are illustrated with reference to interesting debates about pedagogy, philosophy, ethics, the school, and teaching practice (most of which will be relevant to the teachers and trainee teachers (and other classroom practitioners) in your school. It is ideal for teacher training courses, or for ‘staff room morning training sessions’ that I know are often a feature of professional development in schools. It is offered freely so that teachers can see the ‘Philosophy Boxes’ method in action: mild ‘plugging’ of the availability of other PHILOSOPHY BOXES downloads (which you can find on TES for virtually every subject) is featured in the presentation. I hope that, if you like this teaching method, you don’t mind helping me sell a few more! :) The Philosophy Boxes Method presents students with a set of ‘mystery boxes’, when a student selects one of the boxes they are presented with 1 of 21 discussion/debate activities [that use 1 of 8 different formats]. The presentation has integrated AfL so that teachers can test knowledge at any point in the lesson. There are 10 different AfL slides to choose from. The design is colourful, animated, fun and engaging: all activities require movement and teachers can decide whether students are expressing their ideas purely verbally or by using post-it notes. The nature of the design is that it can be used for short sessions (5-10 minutes) or much longer sessions (up to 2 hours!) - it allows for classroom practitioners to be flexible and adaptable. It can, therefore, be used in lessons or as a tutor-time activity. The download includes a PowerPoint Show; if you would like an editable PPT presentation so that you can make your own ‘Philosophy Boxes’ presentation you will need to download the template here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/-the-philosophy-boxes-method-template-for-creating-your-own-philosophy-boxes-lessons-p4c-p4k-11463227 A complete selection of Philosophy Boxes lessons can be found here: https://www.tes.com/resources/search/?&q=philosophy+boxes+godwin86 Other bundles of ‘Philosophy Boxes’ lessons exist, depending on your needs.
