I'm wondering if there are any students that identify not as male or female? I noticed your mentioned girls and boys. Do you think your 'thinking' inquiry is influenced by gender?]]> 2021-05-18 00:23:09 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533533182 I really loved your straw activity for community building https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533551295 2021-05-18 00:30:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533551295 Socratic Circle https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533562187 I'd like to learn more about this.

You seem to have researched into this deeply.  

Thank you for bringing us into an awareness that relationship is vital.  

You came from a diverse school with various students from different cultures and backgrounds. ]]> 2021-05-18 01:52:14 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533775123 ann_pimentel https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533781048 2021-05-18 01:54:22 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533781048 https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533790457 Those are some great personal reflections. ]]> 2021-05-18 01:57:52 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533790457 Parent Involvement https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533793303 I always find this tough, for those students whose relationship to a parent isn't great. An email home can easily become an occasion for the parent to get angry or punitive with the child, when my intention was otherwise. ]]> 2021-05-18 01:59:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533793303 How I will change my practice.... https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533801633


]]> 2021-05-18 02:02:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533801633 How many of us asked the kids to leave the room? There has to be a better way . Thanks https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533803433 2021-05-18 02:03:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533803433 Reflection https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533821185 It was great that you were able to reflect on your practice.  Students come into the classroom with so much "baggage" and sometimes we forget that. Its good to take a moment to acknowledge that they have traumas and issues.

One of our strengths as teachers is to roll with whatever is thrown our way and it sounds like your field study experience showed you doing just that.]]> 2021-05-18 02:17:24 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533837644 Power of Conversation https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533974396 Its great to hear that your students had such a diverse ways of participating in group discussions.  All those discussions were an excellent way to build class community. 
Bal]]> 2021-05-18 03:14:30 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533974396 Kindness https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533978859 Kindness is such a simple concept but it has such powerful and far reaching impacts.  The reminders of kindness help to create a community where your students can feel safe and  accepted. While looking at your students acts of kindness it was great that you were reflecting on "Am I being kind?" You were looking at your own practice through the lens of the students.
Bal]]> 2021-05-18 03:16:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533978859 Metacognition https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533995583 I really like how you evolved your inquiry as the need arose.  You spoke oh how you wanted the students to reflect on their learning and how it inadvertently made you think about your own learning. Your idea of mindful planning also showed how you were reflecting on your practice and its impact on your students.
Bal]]> 2021-05-18 03:24:17 UTC https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1533995583 Teams https://padlet.com/ann_pimentel/7n6unikipmtmqfw6/wish/1534006061 I really enjoyed seeing the images of the learning team.  What this did was emphasize the players involved in the process of helping students.  This was further advanced when you brought up the "Power of Peers."  Its easy to forget that the students helping each other is a powerful tool that can help both learning and community. Your students are lucky to have you in their corner.
