@oaklawntoyota HORRIBLE service department experience last night. After many years as a loyal customer, I am angry, frustrated and so disappointed!

A5: Biggest takeaway - encouraging students to try, fail, and try again. Its about the learning, not the finishing. I want to continue encouraging students to be their personal best (not just enough for the grade) and to help their peers be their very best. #D109Pirates

[Karen Ward @kward417]

A4: Next year - passion projects, writers workshops, and lots more math problem solving! #D109Pirates

[Karen Ward @kward417]

A3: I am empowering my students in these final weeks by encouraging them to work with partners, to chose where they work, as well as the class resources that will help problem solve. #D109Pirates

[Karen Ward @kward417]

A2: I look forward to encouraging students to use their personal knowledge to solving new problems in new situations. #D109Pirates

[Karen Ward @kward417]

A2: I plan to encourage reflection and revision by trying the "2 sentence" rule - first, answer the question, then explain why you did it that way. #D109Pirates

[Karen Ward @kward417]

A1: By the end of the year I hope my students can solve more problems independently and manage task completion more independently. #D109Pirates
