Critical Thinking

Meaningful knowledge construction

 

Limited Evidence Emerging Developing Accelerating Proficient
I understand and remember what I am learning about.

I can answer basic questions but cannot always explain my thinking. 

With help, I can explore what I already know and use this as a starting point for new learning. 

I am starting to think about new learning but I need help to support my ideas with evidence or reasons.

I use different methods to create new knowledge and beliefs. 

I can evaluate information and answer questions in one class but don’t usually make connections with learning in other classes.

I can think about topics in new and interesting ways and explain why what I’ve learned is useful.

I can gather and combine information from different subject areas to build a deeper understanding of a topic.

I can examine, understand, and judge information from across different subjects. 

I am good at seeing and explaining topics from different points of view.

I justify my own opinions with evidence. 

I reflect on how and what I learn to improve my learning.
