● Understand the background of Cultures of Thinking and Visible Thinking.
● Discuss how Cultures of Thinking intertwines with what we do a school social workers.
● Identify who is doing most of the thinking when we work with students - us or them.
● Learn and experience specific thinking routines that connect to what we already do as school social workers.

Cultures of Thinking Project
● Global initiative by Dr. Ron Ritchhart in 2000● Senior Research Associate at Project Zero (Harvard
Graduate School of Education)● Goal of CoT is to develop “both the individual and the
group as effective learners and thinkers able to engage with and adapt to a changing world.”
Who are our students becoming as thinkers and learners as a result of their time with us?

● How we structure our spaces, time, & interactions communicates our beliefs and priorities.
● The culture of a classroom or office space “speaks” to students.
● Dr. Ritchhard found 8 forces which define our classrooms
Modeling, Opportunities, Routines, Expectations, Language, Interactions, Time, and Environment
Eight Cultural Forces

● How do we use these cultural forces already in our social work practice?
Modeling, Opportunities, Routines, Expectations, Language, Interactions, Time, and Environment
● By paying attention to these forces we can reshape learning environments and create a culture of thinking.

Questions to keep in mind when you are watching the upcoming video -
● Which of the 8 Cultural Forces do you observe in the video?
● Which of the 8 Cultural Forces do you already have in place as a school social worker?
After the video we will do a Thinking Routine to share your answers to these two questions.

Give One ~ Get One Routine
Thinking Routine used to initiate movement and to encourage participants to think divergently and generate many ideas quickly.
Question - How can we (or do we already) use the 8 Cultural Forces to encourage a culture of thinking when we are working with staff, parents, and students?
1. Take your list of generated ideas and move around the room.2. Connect with another social worker (who is not already in your
phone contact list) and each of you share one of your ideas. Include ● Which cultural force?● How you use it or how could you use it?● Why is it important?
3. Write down the new idea that you heard.4. If you have the same ideas, brainstorm a new one together.5. Move on to another social worker and repeat the process to gather
more ideas.

Who is doing most of the thinking when you are with students?
You or the student?
Are the students giving you answers with reasoning or evidence to back up their thinking?
Who is doing most of the talking during a lesson/session?
Is there more talking at or engaged learning going on?

Audra’s Mentoring Experience
I thought the day went really well!
The focus was less about me making it meaningful for them, but allowed the participants to make it meaningful for themselves.
Everyone walked away with a challenge that speaks to the heart of the matter, which they concluded was "doing what's best for students".

Thinking Routines
Thinking Routines are simple structures to
scaffold,
support,
and direct
students’ thinking.
![Page 17: Creating a Culture of Thinking...Thinking Routine used to initiate movement and to encourage participants to think divergently and generate many ideas quickly.

Thinking RoutinesEasily put into our work with students, staff & parents.
Especially in the areas of -
● Preparing for an IEP● Transitioning to a new school/level change● Working with anxious students● Students with behavioral challenges● Empathy/Friendship/Bullying concerns● Staff increasing understanding of special education
students
Thinking routines can be connected to any social/emotional learning target.

● Goal is to help students think about an idea and evaluate it.
● Works well when you want to explore various thoughts on a new idea or specific topic.
● Can be done whole group with one recorder or individual either by writing or sticky notes.

● Way to introduce a new concept or encourage discussion about a visual topic
● Extremely easy to do and encourages thinking out loud because there are no right or wrong answers.
● See – What can I see with my eyes. Facts/Observations● Think – What do I think or believe is going on? I think….● Wonder – What questions/wonders do I have? I wonder if…..
