Lori's TwT Thoughts

Choose one of the habits and consider: Gathering Data Through All Senses

When do you see the habit being employed by your students? What triggers or helps to encourage that habit? I had a group of students who needed constant reinforcement and reassurance. This group used their environment more than any group I have had before. I encouraged this by referring to resources in the classroom often when they had questions. I also praised their use of the environment in justifying thier answers.

Lori, Betsy chose this one to emphasize too. I think with students develop this habit of mind, teachers can add things to the classroom environment and know that students will use pay attention and use it as a resource...bulletin boards, book displays, new links on our web pages... what about doing some recordings with sound of some parts of difficult lessons (SMARTnotebook recorder) so students can review as needed?
