Reply To: Lesson 6-7 Question

I love the notice and wonder step and I think this is so important to draw students in. There is so much information in this workshop that I find valuable. Students are going to build grit on the hero’s journey. Grit is such an important trait that humans need and parents and teachers have a difficult time watching kids struggle, but it is beneficial in our lives. Some of the spiraling and assessment ideas I am already doing, but I am definitely going to continue to put more into practice. I really want to implement standards based assessment. I have shared some of the ideas with my co-teacher and we are looking forward to building strong math students this year.
