Developing Metacogntive Skills: Naming Photos - Lesson 1

Developing Metacognitive Skills is a 16-lesson photo-based curriculum designed to support students in building self-awareness and reasoning skills around their own thinking processes. Each lesson pairs a structured set of real-world photographs with classroom instruction and intervention activities, giving educators and interventionists a ready-made visual resource for prompting reflection, discussion, and higher-order thinking tasks. The photographs support naming, describing, and reasoning tasks suited to classroom instruction, speech-language intervention, and metacognitive skill-building across a range of everyday and thematic subjects.
