This would be a great experience for students to bond within the classroom but also for me to know what barriers are already in place for students.]]> 2018-04-11 19:47:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mali14/6ig7ah8c4ijf/wish/250908799 I would like to do this activity as well although I would to have students use works of art, primarily from the renascence period in Europe. https://padlet.com/mali14/6ig7ah8c4ijf/wish/256111949 2018-04-27 17:44:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mali14/6ig7ah8c4ijf/wish/256111949 The prime area https://padlet.com/mali14/6ig7ah8c4ijf/wish/256113511 This is an area where I really feel I need to get to know my students in order to really know how to respond to them in a positive way.  This would be easy if all our kids were cars and I would know exactly how to part all the parts that they need to function together.  So I find this a method of two steps forward and one step back.  The long road to go is what I am looking for on this issue and that as the year continues they are more on board with where I am trying to get them to which are self-motivate learners.

Also, if they feel safe they will take academic risks and have a growth mindset. Positive reinforcement is also beneficial for these. The teacher could be aware of student issues and individual identities. https://padlet.com/mali14/6ig7ah8c4ijf/wish/256116539 2018-04-27 17:55:10 UTC https://padlet.com/mali14/6ig7ah8c4ijf/wish/256116539 In order to activate prior knowledge, pose a "do now" or bell work to connect past content to new content. Also, making connections between big ideas. Recognize that students have expertise in certain skills and content. These students' expertise can assist one another to promote a positive intellectual working environment. https://padlet.com/mali14/6ig7ah8c4ijf/wish/256118265 2018-04-27 17:59:34 UTC https://padlet.com/mali14/6ig7ah8c4ijf/wish/256118265 Recognize past successes.

Write a big "P" and a big "S" on the board. Add a few letters to create mystery like "rug" after the "S" or "duc" after the P. Start a free-form Wheel of Fortune where students popcorn-guess letters and try to guess the words. If they get stuck, give them letters to keep the activity moving. When they get the phrase, reflect on the activity, that it was a productive struggle. No one quit, no one gave up, it was fun, it reached a productive endpoint.
