Did a Trial of a Socrates in class today and took notes on board during the trial. Would have looked/been done much better if @TeacherNWB could have sketch noted it on the board! Miss collaborating with you! #sketchnotes #socialstudies

A4: trying! I identify Ss strengths by paying attention to my Ss, watching how they learn, and how they work. I also talk to them and learn from them. Also giving different types of activities to bring out different strengths #falconslearn
Q4: Are you providing an opportunity for ALL students to be leaders? How do you identify student’s strengths? #falconslearn

A3: I encourage student involvement by showing my own passion for the subject. I also work to create an environment an environment where Ss feel comfortable taking chances and stepping outside their comfort zone #falconslearn
Q3: How can you encourage student involvement in your classroom? #falconslearn

A2: still working on adapting to new school as well as 6th grade, become beginning to use gradual release with my Ss in allowing choice in activities/assignments, as well as teaching classmates. Also, allowing Ss to reflect in their learning and use their feedback #falconslearn

Love this! #falconslearn
A1 Student leadership to me is all about giving students the space in and out of the classroom to express their thoughts, strengths, interests, and preferences. T's should also expose Ss to opportunities that stretch them to want to try new and bigger things! #falconslearn
A1: student leadership to me means allowing student to have a voice in your classroom because their voices are the most important. Allowing students choice as well #falconslearn
Q1: What does student leadership mean to you? #falconslearn
