Take Five Week One-1

When Karl first approached me with the idea of taking 5 minutes each day to change my way of teaching into a more student centered constructivist approach, I was glad for the permission to change, to try something new. I always enjoy stepping to my classroom each day to teach my kids, but I hadn't really considered how powerful it would be to allow them to teach each other. Just over the last few weeks, it has been really encouraging to see them want to prove their point to me rather than me informing them as to the right answer. I am enjoying this!
