Magenta Principles

UPDATE

Resources:

Handout/Explanation of the Magenta Principles


How It Works:

Whenever students are presented with a text/information/facts etc they are to use one or more magenta principles…
  • reduce
  • change
  • assemble
  • search
  • connect
  • arrange
  • enlarge
  • simplift
  • classify
  • compare and contrast
  • deconstruct
  • apply
  • prioritise
  • act it out?
These are fantastic for note taking, revision and gaining an understanding of whatever material you provide the students.


Lessons are for Learning (1997) By Mike Hughes- @MikehughesETS



Variations:


  • Have explanations of the words next to them?
  • Ask students to use dictionaries to find out the definitions?
  • Ask students to work on the same text with different principles and see if they pick out the same information?
