In times of change, learners inherit the Earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists.
~ Eric Hoffer

Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason so few engage in it.
~ Henry Ford

Learning is not a spectator sport.
- D. Blocher
![Page 9: Oldham County Learning Institute Building a Thinking and Learning Community October 7-9, 2008 February 10-12, 2009 September 22-24,2009 November 3-5, 2009.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649db65503460f94aa84a9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Gradual Release of Responsibility model of instruction suggests that “the cognitive load should shift slowly and purposefully from the teacher-as-model, to joint responsibility, to independent practice and application by the learner.”
(Pearson & Gallagher, 1983)
![Page 10: Oldham County Learning Institute Building a Thinking and Learning Community October 7-9, 2008 February 10-12, 2009 September 22-24,2009 November 3-5, 2009.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649db65503460f94aa84a9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Classroom Community
![Page 12: Oldham County Learning Institute Building a Thinking and Learning Community October 7-9, 2008 February 10-12, 2009 September 22-24,2009 November 3-5, 2009.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649db65503460f94aa84a9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Classroom community can be built by intentionally designing the classroom to include…
•Routines•Rituals•Relationships
![Page 13: Oldham County Learning Institute Building a Thinking and Learning Community October 7-9, 2008 February 10-12, 2009 September 22-24,2009 November 3-5, 2009.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649db65503460f94aa84a9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Routines are the procedures the teacher uses in the classroom that make the day run smoothly.
![Page 14: Oldham County Learning Institute Building a Thinking and Learning Community October 7-9, 2008 February 10-12, 2009 September 22-24,2009 November 3-5, 2009.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649db65503460f94aa84a9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Rituals are the symbolic acts that tie a group together.
![Page 15: Oldham County Learning Institute Building a Thinking and Learning Community October 7-9, 2008 February 10-12, 2009 September 22-24,2009 November 3-5, 2009.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649db65503460f94aa84a9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Relationships can be built in any classroom.
They make students feel valued and important.

Creating a Guide to Take Us Home
Destination - Where do we want to go? First Steps - What is our starting point? Challenges - What are some of the detours
and roadblocks we might encounter? Discussions: What are the difficult dialogues
that we’ll need to have as we travel? Changes - What revisions will need to be
made in the context and content of our instruction?

On the final day of the institute the teachers were asked this question:
![Page 35: Oldham County Learning Institute Building a Thinking and Learning Community October 7-9, 2008 February 10-12, 2009 September 22-24,2009 November 3-5, 2009.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649db65503460f94aa84a9/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
What will you take away from this institute that will better help you meet the needs of your students?
![Page 36: Oldham County Learning Institute Building a Thinking and Learning Community October 7-9, 2008 February 10-12, 2009 September 22-24,2009 November 3-5, 2009.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649db65503460f94aa84a9/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
“There is nothing more powerful than a classroom climate of discovery, grounded in the thinking strategies led by an enthusiastic teacher facilitator.”
![Page 37: Oldham County Learning Institute Building a Thinking and Learning Community October 7-9, 2008 February 10-12, 2009 September 22-24,2009 November 3-5, 2009.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649db65503460f94aa84a9/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
“I hope that I can now be more intentional and purposeful in my teaching; give my students a chance to recognize their own thinking skills, to help them realize they have these skills and they can use them.”
![Page 38: Oldham County Learning Institute Building a Thinking and Learning Community October 7-9, 2008 February 10-12, 2009 September 22-24,2009 November 3-5, 2009.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649db65503460f94aa84a9/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
“Seeing the thinking strategies in action in the classroom is so powerful! It makes me realize the potential I possess to make this happen in my classroom. I think sharing this experience with other teachers from my school and other schools makes it easier to make changes. Observing the class is much more meaningful than just hearing a lecture or reading about it.”
