@MariaCastiglia7@RutgersAltRoute Agree! For my #esl students, I give them "projects" that they can work on and present their answers in different manners. I want to assess their language acquisition.
@RutgersAltRoute A5: I see how students mindset might get in their way. A 3rd grader said to me, "I'm not good in math. It's hard." The students wouldn't try to solve a single problem. After making sense and guide her thinking, she was able to complete the problem. #AltRtEd#growthmindset
@RutgersAltRoute A4: in #esl I find that being able to differentiate my lessons can have a positive outcome. Students are familiar with a topic but their language might not allow them to express it, so I give them the option on how to express their answer. #AltRtEd#growthmindset
@RutgersAltRoute A3: Students can take academic risk and allowing them to see that growth is possible even when its hard. I can show use myself as an example of making mistakes and learning from them. #AltRtEd#growthmindset
@RutgersAltRoute A2: Teachers can make clear expectations for students to follow by modeling successful answers and critical thinking; allowing all students to get a chance to participate in classroom discussions; making sure all materials are accessible for students. #AltRtEd#growthmindset
@RutgersAltRoute A:1 Mindset can help fuel student's growth in the their learning and developing by pushing them to meet high expectations and knowing they can get their. However, it can hinder on students/teachers who believe they are doing all they can and nothing more. #AltRtEd#growthmindset
@RutgersAltRoute A5: I feel that we must understand our students as a whole in order to support out students with learning disabilities. I try to be as flexible as possible, understanding that is not one fit all policy. #AltRtEd#Sped
