Re: I've been thinking...

This morning's discussion regarding Sudoku was very enlightening for me. It's been interesting listening to comments and different thoughts from various types of people in our class. There are obviously different teaching styles in this class, just as there are varying students. We are from different classrooms- some are larger than others-30+students, some have less than 20 students, and some of us have 120 students. Because of these different teaching circumstances, it has been interesting to see the varying thoughts as well as opinions. We cannot fill eachothers shoes unless we truly understand the circumstances.  I think people as well as teachers learn differently and think differently. We need to be more nurturing with our students as well as our peers. We need to share, and listen. Listening is something we are failing at...why do we stop listening to other people-our students...this is where we fail ourselves as educators. Inquiry needs listening in order to be successful...
