Inspired by Ms. Winegardner scoring our students tickets to Joshua Bell, I give you this short video lesson idea to teach a thinking skill. It is more a quick "hook" to introduce a higher order thinking practice to your students within whatever larger lesson you are teaching. Use it when you want to have students be more aware of their surroundings, their thought processes, external cues to when something is " important", etc. I can make this fit almost any curriculum. It meshes nicely with reading strategies taught in Here's the video introduction and link to the news story about it. Will one of the nation's greatest violinists be noticed in a D.C. Metro stop during rush hour? Joshua Bell experimented for Gene Weingarten's story in The Washington Post (Video by John W. Poole)
