This practical teaching resource has been designed to give children
aged 9-12 the basic tools required to challenge some of the
conflicting information which they may encounter in everyday life.
With increasing exposure to modern information technology and
social media, amongst other things, children are increasingly
exposed to misleading information that can seriously influence
their worldview and self-esteem. The sooner they are helped to
approach some of this material with a critical eye, the better they
will be able to make independent judgements and resist undue
persuasion. Key features of this book include: * Short texts
designed to give opportunities for critical examination, created to
be points of discussion with individuals, groups or whole classes *
Topics covering seven areas of critical thought, ordered in level
of difficulty, including finding contradictions, and detecting bias
and fake news * Supporting teacher prompts and questions, as well
as photocopiable resources without prompts The ability to question
and evaluate information is an essential life skill, as well as a
key skill for academic learning, yet it remains one of the most
challenging aspects of comprehension to teach. This is a vital text
for teachers, teaching assistants and other professionals looking
to develop critical thinking skills in their students.
