I have yet to see a use case for AI in the classroom that wouldn't also be addressed by smaller class sizes & more paid prep time for teachers.

if you’ve talked to me recently, you would hear about my experience listening to The Perfectionist’s Guide to Losing Control — and how instead balancing time, we need to learn how to balance our energy ⏰

A7: Journal writing at start of class – a prompt related to current events, the day's lesson, or reflection about team work and participation in class. Then I ask students to share with their team mates and they often find points of similarity and connect on that.

A6: Highlight SPECIFIC ways that students were “smart” that day, in front of their peers– maybe they asked a really great question or drew a picture to solve a problem. Either way, verbal praise really motivates my students to keep up the momentum in the future!

A5: I take a moment to check in with the class and share my honest thoughts – “hey – this isn’t going as I planned. How is everyone feeling?” this usually helps me gauge whether students are confused about the directions or about the content.
