Metacognition and Reading

Posted at 7:03 pm under School 60

Yesterday we began talking about thinking about our thinking while reading so that we can better understand what it is we are reading. I told them that the term for that is metacognition. Today we continued to talk about it and we further discussed why it is important to ask questions and think about our reading. It was clear the kiddos are really understanding the thinking about our thinking because after a friend shared today Saa said, “They were thinking about their thinking!” We are going to discuss this further, but I wanted to let you know what great thinkers we have in our class!
