- Taking Imagining into classroom culture. Activities for Imagining. Offers numerous suggestions to develop an Imagining friendly culture and build students’ Imagining skills.
- Blending Imagining with content. Dual Focused Lesson ideas. Suggests a series of questions and steps you might use to ensure the development of Imagining claims its place in the curriculum and is designed into lesson/activities to aid understanding.
- Team reflection and planning. Share the impact of your experiments with colleagues and plan what you need to do next.
