A6: I think this relates to this lesson the most are engaging and responsive. As a teacher you want to engage the students in their learning making it enjoyable and you want to be able to respond to their needs and adapt when you notice they are lacking in certain areas. #TCH130

A5: Every young adolescent is growing and developing into the person that they want to become and this film depicted that through their color. The film showed all these adolescents as a gray color because their creative side was suppressed. #TCHEdBirds #TCH130 #TCH296

A4: It’s good to take risk in the classroom if it means it’ll promote your students learning and engagement. This short film taught me that it’s good to switch things up in your classroom and important to spark new curiosity and learning styles. #TCHEdBirds #TCH130 #TCH296

A3: “Alike” made me rethink what lessons I wanna teach in school. When teaching I want to inspire my students in their work to show their personality and not be draining it can be for a student when they are forced to do the same thing over and over again. #TCH130 #TCH296

A2: The short story “Alike” reminded me of how school felt like a place where you went and did the same thing as every other kid. This video showed the lack of creatively lead to a lack in drive in student, representing by their colors fading. #TCHEdBirds #TCH130 #TCH296

For week 3 of #MLEM we're giving a shout out to the research that supports the advancement of our field.

In the new issue of Middle School Journal, Harold Wade Brackins provides an intriguing study of students' perception of teacher empathy.

In my readings I learned a lot about what goes into the development of young adolescents. Their development is more than their cognitive skills but also their social and emotional, with so many factors like the community or family that go into shaping their development. #TCH130

@AndersonNAsher I love how you said "learn to loving learning", I think that's a great way to think about the purpose of school!

@CassidyThorner2 I liked your thoughts on learners and how their outside life can effect their school life.
