Reply To: Lesson 8-4: Making Connections Through Problem Based Lessons – Discussion

[Merrillee Reboullet]

I had two big take-aways with from this video. The first is how important it is for me to be fluent with modelling in different ways. I have been guilty of not being as intentional as I could have been with nudging my students use multiple ways of showing that are meaningful. The before and during actions are important to them moving foward in their thinking.

The second take-away is to really anticipate where students may take the task and to be prepared to modify as needed to ensure entry for all students…and in my case, to really push some of my students to expand their thinking.

Some good reminders here.
