Abstract:
We live in a society that must train its students for a future that is yet to be defined and for a largely unknown job market (Perkins, 2014). Which leads us to establish that one of the elements that we must work on the most is autonomous, strategic and effective thinking. (Costa, 2008, Ritchhart, 2015, Swartz and Perkins, 1990, Tishman, Perkins and Jay, 1998) To do this, we must put at their disposal strategies that allow them to face problems successfully.

In this context, the inclusive school guarantees a fair treatment to our students. So that we have to make use of the resources that we have according to their specific needs (Booth and Ainscow, 2002).

This research proposal aims to establish the basis to work thinking strategies in the classroom to support students with Special Educational Needs, through the adaptation of thinking routines and the development of specific thinking language.
