Teaching Moments Helps With Changes
Ever school year is different. Our 4th grade students participated in what is known as “a wheel” approach by going to a different teacher for each academic subject, similar to middle school. However, it didn’t quite work out. In the best interest of our students, a different arrangement worked out better.
Teachers reflect on learning outcomes and opportunities to further student engagement. With some faith and positive thinking, I recalled a memorable event last year in front of my classroom door. My students and I were amazed to see a chrysalis attached to the outside of our classroom wall. Even so, we were surprised to see a butterfly emerge in front of our eyes! The metamorphosis was an enlightening experience. We can learn from change by looking around us, having faith, and thinking positive.
