I always thought I had to do a whole group, progress response while I ask questions. Now I know that reflections can look differently based on purpose. https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645049 2017-04-17 23:03:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645049 https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645093 I am pretty good at providing reflection time in math, but it has lost its purpose. My goal is to beef up my reflection time and carry it over to all subjects!]]> 2017-04-17 23:04:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645093 https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645170 Ideas, questions, observations, connections and conversations are recognized and valued. Understanding why the time for reflection is necessary!]]> 2017-04-17 23:05:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645170 https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645192 It's a challenge to teach students integration of the thinking strategies.  Many see and think in isolation rather than connected strategies.  

]]> 2017-04-17 23:05:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645192 We want all of our students to think critically and to be able to share their thinking with their peers and respond to the thinking of others. Somehow, I think I failed to realize - for a long time - how important it is for us to model and teach the thinking strategies. Once students see and hear our thinking, they have to work at doing the same thing in their own reading, and learn to share in meaningful ways. Reflection is an important piece of metacognition, as it heightens our realization of what we are doing to make sense of the things around us. https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645246 2017-04-17 23:06:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645246 I think integration of strategies requires a lot of planning and consideration of content. What strategies might work best together to meet this goal? mmorrisjones https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645252 2017-04-17 23:06:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645252 Reflection can be whole group, small group, with pairs, or individual! Glad to have freedom to try new structures. mmorrisjones https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645300 2017-04-17 23:07:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645300 https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645361 My students often recognize the link of thinking strategies and how they can't and don't stand alone! Often times I don't have to point it out....]]> 2017-04-17 23:09:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645361 I agree that sometimes the students elevate the connections! The strategies are so individual, as are our students. mmorrisjones https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645413 2017-04-17 23:09:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mmorrisjones/NowWhat/wish/166645413
