-
How are you thinking with orchestra?
-
A5: Would like to add more opportunities for reflection and innovation. Tough with beginning ELLs.
-
-
...perhaps you could start with how they perceive their experience in American schools, teacher interactions, etc.
-
A5 perfect time of year to be adding in more choice and time for innovation, keep them interested & they will stick w/ you to 6/9

Kelli, it is a perfect time. With choice comes ownership.

This also leads to empowerment.

A5 Self-Assessment not only for students but also teachers...is what we doing purposeful?
-
A6: All relationships are important but we must have them with our Ss. They come first in our classroom.
-
Ah yes...How do you plan on bring this in?
-
A5: Innovation with choice and voice. Don't want Ss to feel limited by thinking everything has one right answer
-
A6: ALL OF THEM! Every member of the school is an important member of the family!
-
Totally...I want you to choose just one. He he.
-
...as Ts, we have to model the behavior and set the tone. All it takes is a simple "Hello" and "Thank You"...goes so far!
