Capture, Connect, Get Creative

This book is meant to serve as a resource in lesson design for classroom educators.  It is my hope that you will find opportunities for your students to use creativity and critical thinking when building concept connections.  Beyond vocabulary acquisition, the development of these connections builds understanding and leads to long-term learning.  

The chapters in this book are organized by the cognitive demand, or complexity, required to complete given tasks.  I encourage you to challenge yourself to use a variety of strategies as you capture, connect, and create.
