hey all,
I'm still focusing on Strong Voice, Positive Framing, and Do It Again. I've also started to add in more At Bats and Take a Stand. These are where you keep track of how many tries a student gets in class. If you ask a question, or pose a problem, how many times does a student get to try to answer it?; the second one is where you refuse to be the initial judge of a student's answer (you get the other students to judge it). These are primarily aimed at getting/forcing the students to take an active part in class. They discourage passivity and also (for Take a Stand) promote listening to other students carefully and with respect as an everyday practice.
Cheers,
