How can we teach thinking Math?
Look at the manipulatives being used on these desks to figure out a story problem in 3rd grade Math? Now, take a picture of this, place it on your smart board, and ask the student(s) to come and explain their answer! Let the student become the teacher.
What a fantastic STEAM bulletin board?
If you haven't taken your class down by Amy Dauss's office, you need to do this today! There is a fantastic interactive bulletin board that your student's need to experience. That is exactly what it is, an experience. Kudos to Amy Dauss. This is embedding STEAM into everything we do!
Isn't this the truth?
Think about the things you have accomplished in your life that took lots of time and energy? Was the payoff worth it? Examples: Getting a degree, winning a championship, raising children, disciplining your favorite student, paying off a credit card. The list is endless, yet there is not better reward once this is achieved.
Greatness requires hard work and perseverance.
Please don't be offended...just add your own title: for brunettes, for parents, for principals...:)
Think about your current student's? Do you ever find yourself thinking or saying these kinds of words? Every child has potential.
