12th expose Ss to real world probs and create safe place to fail and try again #gcisdchat

A2- First step is for us as adults to become comfortable with not having all the answers. Helping students find ways to search their own solutions. #gcisdchat

Looks like tonight is a busy night for others and they are unable to join our chat. We will post all the questions at once for a slow chat. Feel free to respond throughout the week. Thank you! #gcisdchat

As teachers, we tend to want to have the answers but joining our students in search of the answer is so powerful! #gcisdchat

Providing that "safe" place to fail and try again is essential! #gcisdchat

Yes @B_Waits! How do we build a culture where failure is expected on the road to success and even celebrated? #gcisdchat
Lisa_BrownGCISD Feb 15 @ 9:51 PM EST

Great to have you @CristiGCISD! We are actually changing formats to a slow chat for the next week so more people can join in. #gcisdchat

Also, too, if we do have the answers, we find the reserve to let Ss discover it for themselves! #gcisdchat

Hey gang, looks like not many on the chat tonight, huh? #gcisdchat

@amyleitner06 true. I think also Ts have to be ok with failing. I hate feeling like I failed...but often gives best perspective #gcisdchat

But often our curriculum feels canned or opposite of "real world". Still the goal #gcisdchat
