There's more to words than meets the eye. In fact, with analogies, students are forced to think about the relationships between words, and then apply the same relationship to the next set of words. It's not always easy, but if they're participating, it will get them to think! That's what we're looking for in Room 404 - a class full of thinkers! Put that together with doing this work as a team. Some still "wrestle" with conflict during our teamwork sessions. They think the teacher will just separate them from one another to solve the conflict. Not this teacher! We'll have a conversation, solve the problem, and get back in there with the same team intact. These are tough lessons to learn, but with persistence, hopefully we will progress toward treating others civilly! | |
