What makes a good teacher?

here are a few ideas that me and my mom came up with:

• The teacher shares what he or she loves to do with the students so they can experience it to. some of the things my teachers have shared are: writing poetry, doing art, playing music, dancing .
• A good teacher sometimes lets the kids choose the activities ( example: in gym, Shauna let us make the fit rotations. Not only did she allow them to chose the activities, they evaluated it as a group afterwards... asking 'what worked well and what didn't")
• Getting down to the kids level
• squat to talk
• sitting on chair
• Being creative, showing the students different ways to learn.
• A good teacher is very organized (uses whiteboard, computer, label books & bins, book apartments)
• He or she will switch up the classroom for a change. If something doesn't work the teacher shouldn't be afraid to change it:
• make different seating plans so everybody can have a chance to sit with somebody different
• change the layout of the room (carpet, bookshelves, etc.)
• Be supportive and encouraging especially when the kid is having trouble, don't let the kid give up.

This past Monday morning Gabby's cousin, Rowan, was born. He weighed 8 pounds 9 ounces. I wonder if we could think of 10 things that weigh around 8 pounds (besides baby Rowan!)...are up to the challenge? I could start:

1. a big chiuahua
2. 16 blood oranges & 8 bananas
3. 96 small ikea bowls
4. a fish from the Bay of Quinte
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

I'll add to the list as comments come in. :)

And in case you were wondering what 8 pounds of cuteness looks like:

Tri-hexaflexagon

Last night we made hexaflexagons, specifically tri-hexaflexagons. They are a bit confusing, but it works out in the end. A flexagon is a paper hexagon that has three sides (or faces), one side is inside the other two and you show it by squishing it together and opening it from the top (this is called flexing). Warning: try to do it before glueing to make sure you have it right.

Today I am bringing them into school to show my teacher. Maybe the whole class can do them sometime. Click on the links to learn how to make them:

• http://auntannie.com/geometric/flexagon/ - tri-hexaflexagons
• http://auntannie.com/geometric/HexaHexaFlexagon/ - hexa-hexaflexagon

 I suggest we do the three color one, before the six color one (me and my dad did the Hexa-hexaflexagons and it was tricky).

Watch this video AFTER you make one because she talks really fast and can mix you up. Bit it is still a good video and you should watch it.

 

 

She can even make a burrito flexagon. Watch.
