DoL1 Focus Helping students Develop Positive Attitudes and Perceptions about Classroom Climate
Help students understand that attitudes and perceptions related to classroom climate influence learning. By helping students feel comfortable in their own classroom it is vital that teachers have knowledge of the major disruptions to the students learning areas. As the students feel that the teachers are trying to help them feel a sense of comfort by understanding the students wants and needs, if they are uncomfortable in talking about certain topics and you believe that it will further discomfort the student try and avoid that if possible.
DoL5 Focus Habits of Mind
Maintain an Open Mind. By maintaining an open mind students can become more creative with topics in class especially linking into traditional stories and art lessons. By maintaining an open mind the students are able to give you their own opinion what they think will happen next in the story other than what is written on the page also with art this allows them to elaborate when given a sheet of paper what would work together and what wouldnt. This critical thinking topic is vital in classrooms as it is a great developmental stage for students to touch on as creativity is something not touched on as much in classrooms in todays society.
