Great thoughts! This year I am making more of a concentrated effort to let student needs drive my instruction. This may be a little off topic, but I've started periodically collecting my students' writing notebooks and writing in them. To start, I have been commenting on their great ideas, but I'm wondering how to keep the momentum going. Should I share teaching points in their notebooks? Should I edit any of their work?
Danielle,
