A3. This is an area where I could improve. In 30 min I usually just refer back to the rules. But for some this isn't enough. Wasting time

[David Spongberg @SpongbergDavid]

A2. I have my rules on the wall right behind me. I refer to them with almost every group.

A5. We need to think about whether we are frustrated with our students or with their parents. #mcdermottfalcons
