Bloom's Taxonomy

I was very glad to see the topic of Bloom's Taxonomy in our course. I see so often at the secondary level the big push to get the kids to be higher order thinkers, without realizing that you have to start slow and concrete, working your way up to abstract thoughts. Even with more mature students, if the topic/knowledge area is unfamiliar, start slow and concrete.
