    A culture that supports learning is important because everyone is at a different schema starting point (and rarely is how much learning occured shown by marking tasks) #sblchat

    A5 Students need to know why the work is important. Relevancy is huge!! And it can’t just be relevant to the teacher. ;) #sblchat
  • bbbullis Oct 18 @ 9:45 PM EDT

    This is similar to the approach I am taking: quality over quantity - ie one math Q done w different strategies rather than odd Qs today even tomorrow #sblchat
