Diffendoofer Day

1) What does it mean to know how to think?
      A person thinks when they are interested or knows about a topic.  Thinking can be when someone has a question or is curious about something and wants more information about a certain topic.   Knowing how to think can also mean doing it accidentally such as wondering about something and questioning the subject they want to know more about.

2) How does a teacher teach a student how to think?
     A teacher can teach a student how to think in various ways.  Teachers can teach  a student how to think by challenging them and making them wonder or be curious about something.  Teachers also can teach them how to learn by asking questions, providing a spark of interest for the students to  start their thinking process and let them discover more about a topic.

3) Have you ever been in a class where you really had to think?
    Yes, I have been in a class where I have had to think.  In several of my classes my teachers would provide us with a starting question and we were suppose to be creative and think for ourselves on what that topic or question meant to us. Also I have to think when the classes are the hardest and that don't come to me naturally, for example math is easier for me compared to history.
