This afternoon's conversation was eye opening and interesting. The analogy of the house/houseboat model of thinking for students is a great way to think about how our students engage in learning. Foundations are important in allowing the house to stand but sometimes there are needed reajustments. I liked the fact that Elna said that we need to forget the "bad stuff" in some cases and Sarah said that we can build on the" bad stuff"! The "stuff" is what makes us who we are over time!
I think that people are multi-faceted and have many layers that can make or break them. The key is to cultivate the ground around them, repair the cracks, and mend the windows/doors that are broken!
Then the stories can be told how they succeded in floating through the sea of life!
Again, if we think of normalcy as the end point then abnormal behavior won't seem so bad!
