The Language of Thinking and Learning
Over the course of the Learn2Inquire project four Professional Learning Teams will be constructed – English Language; Mathematics; Integrated Studies (Science, Social Science, Technology); Arts. These teams will be the structural basis for staff involvement in the Learn2Inquire Language of Thinking and Learning, with staff from cluster schools being part of at least one PLT over the next 3 years. Understanding and applying thinking skills is subject-specific as well as generic so approaching the project in PLT’s based on learning areas ensures the common theme is contextualised.
