    This is just what I needed to reinvigorate my lessons after the COVID slump. Some of them were basic strategies but it still was nice to have a reminder about them. Looking forward to putting them to use this year.

    I used this book with my third graders and it was amazing! My students were more engaged, and our class connected and bonded over our thinking classroom culture. We always went deeper into a topic, explored greater depths within a concept, and chased knowledge with never ending fervor. It was an amazing school year! I believe this played a vital role in more than doubling my students’ end of the year scores!

    The book is set up so you can find strategies either by Bloom’s Revised Taxonomy Levels (understand, analyze, evaluate, create) or by Instructional Strategies For Engagement (movement, collaboration, media literacy). There are two great tables to help you reference the strategies. Next, the author explains each strategy, gives explicit steps for how to implement the strategy with students, suggests variations of the strategy, and provides additional content-area examples. This book is a gem!!!

    Are you familiar or unfamiliar with Bloom's Revised Taxonomy? It doesn't matter! I believe that you'll love this book regardless because it not only defines the elements of the taxonomy but provides many, many, many examples of them. Those multiple examples act as seeds for the readers imagination to produce ideas for classroom use. Chapter 2, mm, mm, mm! The way it's put together is brilliant with its many examples, and sometimes non-examples, of each kind of thinking; ending with a "Rubric for creating, imaging, and innovating" and a "Creative thinking four-part debriefing structure" for creative projects. Stobaugh follows with a chapter on the benefits of movement, working together, and technology on student engagement and incorporates these, to different degrees, in what follows. What follows, is a chapter for EACH kind of thinking with multiple instructional strategies of that thinking. Each strategy follows with multiple examples, in several content-areas, and strategy variations. It gets the creative thinking juices going: "Which of these structures can I use? What would it look like to use this structure in my area?" I'm a retired general music teacher and I believe that ALL disciplines--including the arts and P.E.--could gather with this book and respond to it in their own ways. Individuals might strengthen different areas of different units. School staffs or departments might shape their professional development with this book or parts of it. College students could easily use this book to form a course for Individual Study. I think that this book has much to offer--even as an example of writing books like these.
