Mind Frame 7: Teachers believe that it is their role to develop positive relationships in classrooms.
Key Question: How do you build a safe and fair environment so that students can make errors, learn from others' mistakes, and move into the challenge zone of learning?
It is the teacher who sets the climate in the classroom. This climate needs to allow and support students to allow them to learn by making mistakes. It is okay for students to not understand a concept or strategy. It is the teacher's role to help students with misconceptions, misunderstandings, and a lack of knowledge.
Is the climate in your classroom fair, empathetic, and trustworthy to allow...
students to indicate that they do not understand without others making snide comments or giving looks?
students to make a mistake and reflect on why their answer was incorrect?
students to try a new strategy and explore other possible solutions?
