Teaching with Higher Order Thinking and Rigor in Mind (formerly Connecting Extending Thinking, v.7) is a great resource to show you how to deliberately teach thinking skills to students while increasing rigor.

-
Discover how to plan, teach, and extend thinking skills
-
Understand how to use extending thinking strategies in your lessons to move students to a higher level of thinking
