Embedding PLTS the BLP Way Building Learning Power, Guy Claxton “ The 6 clusters of qualities are more than Skills that can be trained... The point is to cultivate these qualities into becoming dispositions, or habits of mind... Cultivation of the PLTS should run through the curriculum, life and ethos of the school, like lettering through a stick of rock”.

Embedding PLTS the BLP Way The 4 Rs Resilience: absorption, managing distractions, noticing, perseverance Resourcefulness: questioning, making links, imagining, reasoning, capitalising Reflectiveness: planning, revising, distilling, meta-learning Reciprocity: interdependance, collaboration, empathy and listening

SOLO Taxonomy Stands for S tructures of O bserved L earning O utcomes Developed by Biggs and Collis in 1982 Describes levels of increasing complexity in a student’s understanding of a subject With the highest level being the extended abstract level , when students can make connections not only within the given area but also beyond it. Students will also be able to generalise and transfer the principles and ideas to another area. Chris Harte, Head of Languages at Cramlington Learning Village has applied the taxonomy to language-learning (see his example applied to learning about gender On the plts wiki) Are we allowing our students to make these connections?
