Convince Me!
This year, I am having a terrible fourth dimension getting my posters to rest on the wall. Every day, I play the "let's meet how many posters brutal downwards overnight" game. #sofun
This summer, I made a laid of "Convince Me!" posters. They started out hanging nether my dry out erase board. But, every day, I would come upward inwards too discovery this:
I took them downwards too added to a greater extent than packing tape. They nonetheless brutal down! Finally, I decided to accept ane of my empty bulletin boards too staple them up.
I accidentally stapled the N's upside down. But, it would endure also much of a hassle to accept them all downwards too laid upward it. So, I'm living amongst it. For now.
Students ofttimes enquiry me most the way I run my classroom. Why produce nosotros receive got to demo all of our work? What if I tin produce it all inwards my head? That's great. But, I demand you lot to demo me what that caput of yours is thinking. Convince me that you lot know what you're doing too didn't merely accidentally acquire it right. Or, they inquire me why I gave them a "Not Yet." Because you lot haven't convinced me that you lot know how to produce these problems yet.
They are ever frustrated amongst this response, but I'm non giving up. I cry upward this is the commencement fourth dimension many of my students receive got been asked to do to mastery. They are used to beingness allowed to movement on without mastering the content. That's non going to assistance them transcend their Algebra 1 EOI. That's non going to assistance them graduate from high school. That's non going to assistance them larn math. I likely should receive got position that final argue first, but it's the argue that agency the to the lowest degree to my students. I can't convince them (yet) that math is important. But, most volition concur that graduating is something they desire to do. Though,there are ever the few who tell me that a high schoolhouse diploma isn't necessary. I actually haven't figured out how to demo students that. No affair what I say, they ever appear to know individual who has excelled despite having a diploma.
