I used the responsive classroom model with high school Spanish classrooms, where we practiced message of the day, "morning meetings", sharing, etc. eemery3 https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142359700 2016-12-07 17:30:01 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142359700 2ndary classrooms https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142385323 I've definitely experienced seniors being resistant to anything that seemed too "hokey." In this same school though, many of my colleagues were equally resistant to taking time to address the school culture. I'm guessing the two attitudes were related!]]> 2016-12-07 18:42:10 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142385323 I took the RC training and led morning meeting with my 3rd graders for several years. I especially like their guidance about the beginning of the year and slowly introducing materials. Guided Discovery is a terrific practice for new items -whether books in your classroom library, science equipment or art supplies. chollister https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142568260 2016-12-08 15:08:05 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142568260 Emily- Knowing your students was most compelling to me! I feel that it is critical to know your students in order to create a safe comfortable learning environment for every single student. Without knowing your students it would be very hard to meet their needs. emjones3 https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829199 2016-12-09 15:47:56 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829199 Adam Justice https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829613 2016-12-09 15:49:13 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829613 This be Tyler https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829618 #6 I have come to the understanding that when a school accepts a student, it accepts the family as well. Knowing our students families is crucial to truly knowing our students]]> 2016-12-09 15:49:14 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829618 Dan #3 https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829799 I think that social interactions are extremely important, even in PE. An athlete can shoot hoops all day long by himself, but skill development will improve marginally. When that student interacts and practices with peers, a big growth in skill will occur.]]> 2016-12-09 15:49:45 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829799 Rose https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829808 Principle 2 - How children learn is as important as what they learn. 
I'm nervous about teaching styles and incorporating different activities in the classroom so each lesson is not just a lecture. I want students to learn the material by being engaged and learning hands-on and with their peers. ]]> 2016-12-09 15:49:46 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829808 Erin Fuchs https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829817 I chose -how children learn is as important as what children learn- I struggled picking between a few of them and I settled on this one because I think so many of the others fall into it. If you don't know your students and their backgrounds you won't know how to teach them. By learning about your students you can learn how to present content in an effective way for them  to learn it.

I feel there is a false perception of P.E. and the 4th guideline stresses that in order for students to be successful academically and socially they need to learn cooperation, assertiveness, responsibility...]]> 2016-12-09 15:50:01 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829885 This is Nora... https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829902 Knowing the children we teach-individually, culturally, developmentally- is as important as knowing the content we teach.
I'm especially interested in establishing relationships with my students in order to better understand ways to connect with them and help them learn.

]]> 2016-12-09 15:50:03 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829902 Ben - Knowing the families of children we teach is compelling to me. As an after school instructor, I get to see and talk to parents/guardians every day and getting to know them will give you a better understanding of what to expect from the children that you are working with. https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829904 P.S. Principle #6]]> 2016-12-09 15:50:04 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829904 This is Drew I choose https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829954 2016-12-09 15:50:11 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829954 Abby- I chose #5- knowing the children we teach - individually, culturally and developmentally.... because I think that without having a genuine relationship with students they won't be able to engage as deeply. I remember our post-it note activity about a teacher that we remember and nearly everyone chose a teacher that they connected with, rather than the content they learned. https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829962 2016-12-09 15:50:11 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142829962 James Christenson https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142830096 Tossup between guiding principles 4 & 5. By knowing our students, teachers should be able to emphasize the application of classroom topics. These can be molded to fit the needs and wants of the students. This enables the creation of an environment that encourages and involves all participants.]]> 2016-12-09 15:50:35 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142830096 Ryan https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142830171 I thought that #3 was important. Especially in science where talking about difficult concept can heighten the understanding of the subject. Whether that teacher-student interactions or students working together.]]> 2016-12-09 15:50:51 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142830171 Drew again. # 5 as these are important life skills that not all students may have exposure outside of school. School, work, team environments, these skills will be of value. https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142830173 2016-12-09 15:50:51 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142830173 PJ The guiding principle that speaks to me is "To be successful academically and socially children need to learn a set of social and emotional skills: cooperation, assertiveness, responsibility, empathy, and self control. Being in a classroom teaching students without these basic skills would be a frustrating uphill effort https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142830825 Also working with adult people without the same skills would be less than optimal.]]> 2016-12-09 15:52:46 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142830825 Bob https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142831102 Knowing who the students are seemed very important to me. I could be the greatest teacher in the world with the most content knowledge and the best presentations, but if the students are not learning from those presentations then I'm not teaching them anything. Knowing the students would help me fix that.]]> 2016-12-09 15:53:33 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142831102 Sheryl https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142831257 The guiding principle that I found most compelling was number 5 - Knowing the children we teach... is as important as knowing the content we teach.  Teachers have to know what Ss already know and don't know - their limitations, goals, interests, etc.

#5 knowing your students was a close second.]]> 2016-12-09 15:54:14 UTC https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142831374 Sheila https://padlet.com/eemery3/TAPspring_2017_responsive_classroom/wish/142831879 #5 Spoke to me the most.
Relationship building between the teacher and the students allows for a more trusting environment.    Teachers will be aware of the circumstances of the students and be able to curtail their style to the students.
