2. Use the cards on your table to “build” a group Tree Map. First line up the names of the maps, then classify the rest of the cards under the correct category.

7. You have implemented a plan for teaching Thinking Maps to your students. Your students understand the fundamental reasons for using Thinking Maps ®. Your students have begun to understand the purpose for each TM and can recognize them when applied in content areas. You can match the cognitive vocabulary that corresponds to each TM. You have modeled the use of Thinking Maps ® in a variety of curriculum areas. Your students can draw each of the Thinking Maps ®. Page 81 Chapter 2

10. 1.When maps are introduced during the first 8 weeks, students should be exposed to each map through teacher modeling, discussion, and shared ideas. Students should not necessarily be expected to construct the maps independently. 2.During the introductory weeks, primary maps should be made using manipulatives and/or, kinesthetically. 3.PreK-1 st grade maps can be shared with pictures.

16. Using the Resource Pages Page 83 The resources provided in this text should only be used when introducing the maps to students. Student should begin immediately to draw the maps on their own. Even when you use the masters during the initial teaching, students should be encouraged to go beyond the basic visual.

28. Whole group – If students share with the whole group, they should choose one or two ideas to share, not their entire map. Groups of 4 – Students can pass their maps and read or take turns presenting their maps to each other. The Cooperative Desk maps are a great resource that facilitates sharing. Pairs – Students can be “mixed up” in a class to create pairs for sharing. Pairs can read each other’s maps or take turns sharing their own map. TAKING IT OFF THE MAP Page 94

37. Life Cycle A plant’s life cycle describes how long a plant lives or how long it takes to grow, flower, and set seed. Plants can be either an annual, perennial, or biennial. Annual A plant that completes its life cycle in one growing season. It will grow, flower, set seed, and die. Perennial A plant that lives for 3 or more years. It can grow, flower, and set seed for many years. Underground parts may regrow new stems as in the case of herbaceous plants, or the stems may live for many years like woody plants (trees).

38. Plant Parts - Leaves Leaves are the food making factories of green plants. Leaves come in many different shapes and sizes. Leaves can be simple, made of a single leaf blade connected by a petiole to the stem (oak, maple), or compound, in which the leaf blade is divided into separate leaflets attached by a petiole to the stem (ash, locust). Leaves are made to catch light and have openings to allow water and air to come and go. The outer surface of the leaf has a waxy coating called a cuticle which protects the leaf. Veins carry water and nutrients within the leaf. Leaves are the site of the food making process called photosynthesis. In this process, …. Photosynthesis is special to green plants!

In order to remember the important parts of text, the mind needs to sort against the structure of the text.” “Building Learning Structures Inside the Head” Ruby Payne, Ph.D. Page 123

41. Strategies for Successful Classroom Introduction 1. Essential First Step: Introduce the Thinking Maps to your students over a period of 8-10 weeks. (Chapter 2) 2. Display the posters in the front of your room, either one at a time or all at once depending on your students. 3. Emphasize the thought process of each Thinking Map in your guiding questions. (See Key Words for Thinking, page 77) 5. Encourage students to go beyond the basic format of each map as they construct their thinking in a variety of content areas. 4. Provide a variety of ways for students to share their maps in order to “take the information off the map.” (pages 94-95) Page 124
