I’ve been letting discouragement get the better of me far too often. While doing dishes tonight I remembered a moment during my daily “greetings” routine, which I’ve been feeling badly about lately…it’s too boring, too repetitive…but today I happened to ask a girl, “what’s your favorite day of the week?” she said, “I have two.” …”you have two favorite days of the week?” ….Yes, Wednesday and Friday….Why is Wednesday one of your favorite days?….Because I visit with my mother on Wednesday.
It was so simple and so beautiful. A huge story wrapped up in a small bit of language, but I felt like the whole room leaned towards her.
A sense of community.
Great question, Angie. Wonderful answer. Thanks.
Angie this is ever so poignant.
Do people think what Linda does seems draining? I feel like watching her is a great demonstration of calm presence and control without coercion. She seems to invite people in without being drained at all, and it’s great. She makes it plain that she’s expecting the students to do their part. At iFLT 2015 when I was observing, she did a finger check (how much did you comprehend for the last few minutes?) and an adult in the class showed 6 fingers out of 10. She said something like, “Why didn’t you stop me and tell me? That’s not on me!” in a warm way.
