Teaching kids how to learn might be more important than anything else we teach them. Begin this process by requiring kids to look back on their learning and determine what worked for them and what didn’t. You’ll be amazed how honest they can be and how much their behavior changes.
Model reflection with students and reflect upon your own best practices as well using the 30 Questions for Teacher Reflection. Remember to take time to ensure your own social, emotional, physical and spiritual needs are being met. You and your students will both be better off for it.
