Critical Thinking Spots
At the beginning of June, we
started putting "Critical Thinking Spots" onto our pages. These are mostly
articles from The Conversation
written by academics who have researched the topic thoroughly.
The Critical Thinking Spots have questions to ponder after reading the article. It is hoped teachers and students, after a few minutes read, will take advantage of these spots for some deep thinking and maybe discussion.

Time Reading Material -

The Conversation has produced some amazing articles and podcasts on
Curious
Kids series that you can get your students to either read or listen to.
There are hundreds of these article and podcasts (684 7 June 2024) to enthral
your students and each day more are added. These articles and podcasts are
produced by academics from around the globe so their information can be
trusted.
A great idea of quiet reading time.
