De bono

De bono in the classrooms 

Critical thinking activities encourage students to analyze situations, identify problems, and develop effective solutions. This skill is essential for academic success and future career challenges.

These activities help students learn to think for themselves, make reasoned judgments, and form their own opinions. Independent thinking fosters a sense of confidence and self-reliance.

By engaging in critical thinking , students also become more curious and inquisitive about the world around them. They learn to ask meaningful questions and seek out answers, which drives lifelong learning.

The Grade  4 students were recently engaged in a de bono thinking routine - where they had to solve the problem of chaos in the first floor corridor with lots of children coming and going to and fro from their classrooms . 

They brain stormed and decided to paste red and green arrows for coming and going and yellow tape to symbolise a divider line in the corridor . 

They also took the campaign forward by putting up posters for awareness and by going to each classroom and educating the children about the process to be followed .

It’s quite interesting now to see the students being careful about their transition as they take ownership of this process as their very own solution to their problem .De bono in the classrooms
