2. Visible Thinking is a flexible and systematic research-
based approach to integrating the development of
students' thinking with content learning across subject
matters.

4. There are three ways to get started using Visible
Thinking....
1-Start with Routines
2-Start by exploring Ideals
3-Start by focusing on Documentation
5. How does it work in the classroom?
At the core of Visible Thinking are practices that
help make thinking visible: Thinking Routines
loosely guide learners' thought processes and
encourage active processing.
A routine can be thought of as any
procedure, process, or pattern of action that is used
repeatedly to manage and facilitate the
accomplishment of sp.ecific goals or tasks
6. We learn best what we can see and hear ("visible
thinking" means generally available to the
senses, not just what you can see with your eyes).
We watch, we listen, we imitate, we adapt what we
find to our own styles and interests, we build from
there. Now imagine learning to dance when the
dancers around you are all invisible. Imagine
learning a sport when the players who already
know the game can't be seen.
