Reply To: Strategy #4: Be The Guide, Not The Hero – Discussion

[Louise Tessier]

I feel like I do a good job with providing low floor, high ceiling tasks. I’m able to capture studnet’s attention and provide tasks that are accessible to all students. However, I need to do a better job of being more like Prince and being the guide. I do not provide enough concrete manipulatives for my 6th graders. I also will often try to push students past the productive sturggle quickly becuase it makes ME uncomforatable to see them struggle. This was such an important reminder to push through the discomfort – just guide them. And be sure to provide those tangible manipulatives.
