Document Summary
Important role teachers play in the lives of students. It matters who you are as a human being & classroom culture: especially when there are situations that aren"t related to schoolwork. Non-cognitive capacities you need in life: non-violence, patience. Book recommendations: case studies on diversity & social justice education. Equity, literacy framework: your classroom guide to special education law. #sharebrilliance: kids are already brilliant, we are pointing out unconventional & good things kids bring to the classroom. Worksheets resist students to think: when kids aren"t thinking, they will never be pushed out of their comfort zone. While doing worksheets the classroom may seem very studious but it is actually detrimental. Worksheets are not the solution to controlling kids: neither is coloring, they are harmful to literacy development. Pedagogly of poverty: student"s don"t have skillset to sit quietly for hours on end, when you go into low income schools, you tend to see lots of worksheets, practices that don"t work.
