This resources uses the numbering system on the cards to indicate progressive level of difficulty. As the student goes through the questions they are activating different elements of critical thinking. This begins with questions based on simple memorization or understanding and categorizing /comparing as we experience in the early stages of Bloom's Taxonomy to more abstract or less concrete questions which require forming predictions and making their own inferences as seen in the higher levels of Blooms Taxonomy system. Using such a regulated system in a subject area like Drama where you find more opportunity for non-linear style teaching provides a nice challenge for the teacher. This also provides a way for the student to apply what they know and broaden their learning without really realizing they are indeed learning.
