Today we started off class with a review over what we learned last week. Dr. Behren’s explained how important it is to review material from the previous class when retaining information and new knowledge. We also learned teaching strategies we can apply in the classroom. Some ideas given to us today were:
- Never dictate how your student’s take notes (doodling is okay).
- Encourage students to elaborate on their thoughts.
We also paired up in groups to mimic a PLC. We discussed chapter one in our books. Chapter one discussed what young adult literature is and how the stages of literature is and how the stages of literature breaks up as we get older. Lastly, we read articles and did a jigsaw with our group.
