This morning we started with
This morning we started with a review of people's comments. Essentially we learned that when people feel a sense of value they will talk and engage in the classroom more. One can lead good conversation and good conversation is good for everyone. This is because everyone will come with their own ideas and these ideas will be shared and learned with each other.
Trying different things in the classroom and in conversation is very important..."trying out" is very important.
The most important thing that I learned today is not to ask the student "why are you doing this" Rather, tell the child or let them know that what they are doing wrong and ask them to please stop. It is also important, when talking with children, the voice that you use. You don't want to seem as though you are yelling at them or saying it too negatively (in a negative tone). It's not fair to judge the student by the way they are acting, just let them know what they are doing is wrong, not asking questions...
Our brain is very different from one another and the brain is always in a process of changing. We tend to learn more when we are active and engaged learners. That's why as a teacher it is important to put our maxiumum effort to make the student active because our input will create output.
