Thinking about Philosophical Issues - Book 1: A guide to thoughtful discussion (Paperback or Softback)

Thinking about Philosophical Issues is designed to stimulate discussion and help students to develop their skills of discrimination and reasoning. The focus is not on finding "an answer" as such but rather on the process you and your students go through to reach one (or more). Like the discussions it inspires, this resource can be taken in many different directions. You can pick the questions that suit you and your class and, in turn, give students the opportunity to choose the ones they are most interested in.

Anne-Maree McDougall, a New Zealand-trained and registered teacher and an active member of the New Zealand Philosophy for Children Association, has a passion for thinking with students of all ages. She has worked with teachers, parents and students in New Zealand, Australia and England, and will continue to do so from her home on New Zealand's Coromandel Peninsula.
