jGR Can Be Misused

We must be very careful in how we use jGR. I had that awareness in class the other day and it hit me like a ton of bricks. I was internally pissed at about five kids because they weren’t with me. Then I slowed down like from 45 mph down to 10 mph, and they sat up in their seats and started participating. Bad on me for not going 10 mph from the start of class. What if I had given them 1’s and 2’s in the gradebook for their dismal jGR performance that day? I would have been wrong. If they don’t understand, it is because we are going too fast. Period.
