Thinking Together shows how story-based material can be used to help children raise philosophical puzzles and problems that will set them thinking. It shows how to build a community of inquiry in the classroom, and how to use questioning techniques, group discussion and other activities to develop thinking skills and concepts that can be applied across the curriculum.

Industry Reviews
"It's a central theme of this book that we can most profitably nurture good thinking in the classroom by encouraging children to inquire and reason together about things of significance." * "The main experience I am concerned with is classroom discussion, where attention is paid to the skills and dispositions of thinking together - to such basic things as asking questions, giving reasons, sticking to the point, being fair-minded, listening to alternative points of view and exploring disagreement." -from the introduction by Philip Cam
