9 Essential Spelling Skills for Upper Primary
Critical thinking is an essential skill to build across the curriculum. Students often need reference points to progress through the critical thinking process - such as when using Bloomâs Taxonomy as a framework.
I religiously use displays such as these in my classroom, they enable students to use the critical thinking process more independently.
Whatâs included?
7 x A4 Posters:
Cover poster with the Bloomâs Taxonomy coloured pyramid stating each phase
6 x posters that match each tier of the pyramid in name and colour. Each has verb and sentence starter examples.
Final note:
Why Bloomâs Taxonomy?
Bloomâs Taxonomy is a powerful tool that helps educators design learning experiences that challenge and engage students at every level. By providing a clear framework for categorizing cognitive skills, teachers can create lessons that move students beyond simple memorization towards higher-order thinking. From recalling facts to creating new ideas, Bloomâs Taxonomy ensures that students are equipped with the skills they need to succeed in school and beyond.
