Choices we make by Alexandra Somers Lahr https://padlet.com/alahr1/GannNTDec6 What is a specific choice you made either in planning a lesson, in teaching a lesson, in reacting to a student, or when working one on one with a student in the past week or so? en-us 2018-12-05 21:51:55 UTC 2018-12-06 21:29:59 UTC hello@padlet.com Asking the student to find and refer to their notes as they navigated practice problems. https://padlet.com/alahr1/GannNTDec6/wish/312048689 2018-12-06 21:23:28 UTC https://padlet.com/alahr1/GannNTDec6/wish/312048689 https://padlet.com/alahr1/GannNTDec6/wish/312048740 My students had all these big questions on the text we read last class/ general questions on Genesis so we started class today with about 10 minutes for the students to just ask any big questions that were on their mind.
