Discussions encourage our children to: share their ideas, engage in the lesson more often, argue a point (in a good way), etc. My students love our discussions and it is so awesome to be a part of! lapointn https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158731916 As stated in the article, The Why!

They become more engaged, and they have to consider others' perspectives. Kids have to back up and justify their thinking. :) The text states, "It seems reasonable to suggest that classrooms should be filled with talk, given that we want them filled with thinking." This quote helps to sum up our ultimate goal... we want kids to THINK!]]> 2017-03-08 17:01:46 UTC https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158731971 Dr. Matthews matthewss2 https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158731977 Students can extend their learning by sharing their own perspectives.  Classroom discussions promote higher-order thinking skills and give the teacher a glimpse at what students are thinking and understanding.

Having students discuss information also allows them to think about information a different way and promotes students to help each other to widen their zones of proximal development. It additionally allows them to create higher order thinking skills. Vygotsky suggests, "Talk is the representation thinking." Thus, we must have our students speaking in order to stimulate their minds. ]]> 2017-03-08 17:02:20 UTC https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732220 share difference perspectives https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732391 2017-03-08 17:02:42 UTC https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732391 Kids are able to share and teach one another from a different perspective. https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732446 2017-03-08 17:02:51 UTC https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732446 Classroom discussions promote learning and better understanding https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732450 2017-03-08 17:02:51 UTC https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732450 https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732461 Classroom discussions allow the teacher to understand the students' thinking as well as providing an opportunity for students to communicate with one another]]> 2017-03-08 17:02:52 UTC https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732461 promotes classroom community, self reflection, vocab. development, collaboration, differing points of view, validating thinking/reasoning skills https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732464 -]]> 2017-03-08 17:02:52 UTC https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732464 respect for different opinions https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732469 2017-03-08 17:02:53 UTC https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732469 Respect for others' ideas/opinions, manners, opportunities to verbalize thinking https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732496 2017-03-08 17:02:57 UTC https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732496 the ability to listen, disagree, yet remain respectful https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732502 2017-03-08 17:02:58 UTC https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732502 Classroom discussions promote the ability to learn from others and to see concepts from different perspectives https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732570 2017-03-08 17:03:11 UTC https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158732570 new perspectives.

It has been found that higher achieving students are in classrooms with a higher percentage of student talk. This makes me think about what I was once taught who ever is doing the talking is doing the learning. https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158737540

For example, in the article referencing Math Communities the author spoke on how students were able to communicate with a "shoulder partner" in discussing how to solve a mathematical problem. The students were required to listen to the students full response, before interrupting. This strategy not only allowed the students the chance to communicate with one another, but also helped the students grow as "listeners". ingramj2 https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158738077 2017-03-08 17:17:24 UTC https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158738077 Revoicing https://padlet.com/brownama/6pmcu4lgdh8j/wish/158738541 good strategy
