What I like about it is that it addresses sel. It is okay if we don't understand everything and we don't have to pretend that we do. I also like that it mentions the teacher, because the teacher needs to model that as well. For example, if you don't know the answer then teachers need to admit that. This is a really valuable aspect especially in High School when students get nervous about being wrong, failure, asking questions etc. Sun, 05 Dec 2021 16:47:44 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/293878?scroll_to=2611803 https://nowcomment.com/documents/293878?scroll_to=2611803 Wed, 27 Oct 2021 21:19:58 -0400 https://nowcomment.com/documents/293878?scroll_to=2611801 https://nowcomment.com/documents/293878?scroll_to=2611801 This is true! It is important to reflect on any blind spots or possible classroom situations out of the norm and create a plan. However, sometimes we just aren't prepare which means we also have to think on our feet. I think that is just part of the job, but spending time creating thorough plans can help ready you for surprising circumstances around the corner.

The teacher was leading out in art and I was helping students more hands-on when she repeated to the class, "Only use crayon!" And I thought, why? Why only crayon? Is it a superiors art tool? Later, we discussed it and she told me she heard another teacher do that and she didn't even have a good reason for keeping the tradition in her classroom. We have changed things a little since then.
