Just finished Cultures of Thinking by Ron Ritchhart and this one really stuck with me
Creating classrooms where thinking is visible, valued, and expected is when students feel their ideas matter, learning goes deeper for everyone.

Just wrapped session one of Evidence of Inquiry book study & it was awesome.
Reflective educators, co-constructed meaning, & a shared Learning Wall in progress. Looking forward to seeing how our thinking evolves.

#culturesofthinking Leading a Culture of Thinking Summit: something I’m wondering… in my planning for thinking, are these two ideas the same? Does one matter more? Who might it matter to or for? (or am I just too deep into my February teacher brain 😉)
#culturesofthinking Leading a Culture of Thinking Summit: Learning occurs at the point of challenge (this plenary from @ronritchhart.bsky.social really sang for me - make sure you join next year’s summit to get the whole story/research/learning because it’s powerful) Why do we avoid challenge?
A culture of thinking isn’t something to be done, it’s something we become… we work on it… it’s ongoing… #culturesofthinking
“What kind of thinking moves do we wish students to become so good at that they routinely bring it their learning and use to build understanding?” #culturesofthinking
#culturesofthinking Leading a Culture of Thinking Summit: what are the messages we send to our learners about learning? About thinking? About what learning is and how it happens? Great questions for reflection from #MarkChurch

I was honored and grateful to be a part of the inaugural Leading a Culture of Thinking Summit #culturesofthinking last weekend. Thank you @ronritchhart.bsky.social #markchurch #jimreese @casieonline.bsky.social (prepare yourselves… I’m going to post all about it ☺️)
Enjoyed the Open Space Cafe conversation around getting started (along with the beautiful view) - common threads = find a buddy, check hashtags/AI/for resources and fellow practitioners, be willing to give “it” a go and see what happens (don’t need permission to innovate)… #culturesofthinking
