Reply To: Lesson 4-4: Sparking Curiosity & Fuelling Sense Making With Additive Thinking – Discussion

Ah – just be cautious – we never want to be evaluative of the noticing and wonderings students bring forward. It is one thing to encourage students to share more noticing and wondering, but we don’t want to have students thinking that something they shared wasn’t valued by the class or the teacher. This is something that took me a really long time to work through and it actually held my class back from truly opening up and starting some great conversations.
