Abstract “Rational thinking” is one of the key points in core literacy of Chinese students’ development. It is the important content that chemistry curriculum implements core literacy. The spiritual essence of rational thinking lies in the pursuit of the original. Rational thinking is a higher level cognitive skill corresponding to the intuitive experience. It is also the goal and means of science teaching. In chemistry teaching practice, the absence of rational thinking is manifested in the teaching activity lacking the guidance of rational thought, which is prominent in teaching question, teaching model and teaching methods. Therefore, in the design of classroom teaching activities, the cultivation of rational thinking can be carried out from the application of cognitive sequence, thinking mode and thinking method.
