I am continuing towards my goal of creating student-centered lessons. I have decided to discuss this approach with some of my colleagues to gain their ideas and insights. If they have not used this type of lesson before, I will be interested to see if they become interested in trying it. Perhaps this will turn into something we can collaborate on together, or at least share ideas.
I am also still working with the surveys for student learning styles. It seems like each time I look at them I think of something to add or see something I want to change. I am glad I have the summer to work with them and continue to revise them, so I will be prepared and happy with them when school starts in the fall.

Alison,
ReplyDeleteI am wondering if you have a few computers inside your classroom? Could one of your centers be social networking?

Most classrooms have at least 2 computers. I think it is a great idea to have one set up for use with social networking. Thanks for the idea!
ReplyDeleteAlison,
ReplyDeleteI too like to gather opinions and insights from fellow teachers in my building to help me figure out what I would like to try and have my students do. I think their is a let to be said for the opinions of our veteran teachers. They seem to have a different perspective then what I do at times.

Alison,
ReplyDeleteAre you thinking about collaborating with colleagues in your content area or across content areas? I have been thinking about a social studies collaboration with science unit, the political and environmental issues associated with the BP oil spill. Still a BIG topic and too much unfolding to tackle at the moment but it begs for further inquiry.

Carrye,
ReplyDeleteI would love to collaborate with a social studies teacher on a topic like the BP oil spill. I think this is a great way to illustrate how subjects are related and how one thing can impact many different areas.
