Abstract
Abstract: This paper argues for the teaching of thinking to young learners
particularly in English language lessons. It begins by examining the need for the
teaching of thinking skills in preparation of young learners as 21st century learners
before identifying the spectrum of thinking skills for young learners. Using the
theoretical construct of constructivism, the paper will demonstrate how thinking skills
should be contextualised in authentic children’s literature as a means of modelling good
thinking and thinking frames.
