Reflection:

What I enjoyed most from this experience was seeing how purposeful station rotations can give students more ownership over their learning. I learned that combining teacher-led, online, and offline stations allows students to practice skills independently, collaborate with peers, and receive targeted support, all in one lesson. It showed me how blended learning can make SEL and behavior lessons more engaging and effective.
