Mrs. Scheevel is implementing a Building Thinking Classroom. Why? Students have become bored with (and also dependent on) their current delivery of instruction. A Thinking Classroom shifts the drive to learn back to the individual and gets them excited again about the learning process. Today Mr. Brooks, Mrs. Beyer and Mrs. Weihe came in to join the fun.
Here is what the students are saying:
- everyone gets a chance to think
- we know how other people think
- Work with different people
- A fun method to learn
- smaller group and we can ask questions
- Everyone is included and it is easier to cooperate
- Standing helps get out energy.
- Others can check your work
- Get to see step by step visual representation
- We can make friends
What an innovative and fun way for our students to learn!!!
