How would a more empathetic understanding of the character change the narrative? How would it affect the meaning of the story?

      What types of technology or trends will you use in your classroom?

      I love TED talks myself as something to use. I also plan to use a family connection app to reach out to parents, or at least texting parents. Keeping track and learning to use whatever new tech is being used by students is something I am planning on doing. I have no real idea on what is coming next for tech but I am planning on using it as best as I can.

    Hi, Debi! I also love TED Talks like Joe and because of that I'm a little sad I may not be able to include them in my classroom if I teach in the primary grades like I hope to do. Where I'm at now, I hope that technology will be a help and not in a hindrance in my classroom. I think that using YouTube projected on the Smart Board would be a great way to show read alouds of books I don't have in the classroom, for kids yoga, Go Noodle, chromebooks for ABCYA, playing music for cleanup or relaxing music during writer's workshop, using an Amazon Echo in the classroom for music and timers as well as a break time for kids to ask it questions, etc. I've heard from my mentor school that they use Class Dojo to stay updated with parents and I hope to learn more about that. I know that Google Classroom is great and is what my mentor school used for distance learning.

  • Goldstein et al. (2013) found that a year of acting practice decreased the use of emotional suppression in children aged 7–10, while adolescents majoring in acting at high school (compared to other art majors e.g., music) used less suppression. Additionally, 4–5-years olds randomly assigned to an 8-week drama condition (compared to block building or reading) showed increased emotional control (i.e., inhibition of affective responses to observed or discussed distress; Goldstein and Lerner, 2018).
  • The ability to represent others' mental states, referred to as ToM or cognitive empathy, plays a critical role in understanding and navigating social situations

  • When speaking, make sure the student can see your face and avoid unnecessary pacing and moving. When speaking, avoid obscuring your lips or face with hands, books, or other materials. Repeat discussion questions and statements made by other students. Write discussion questions/answers on a whiteboard or overhead projector. Speak clearly and at a normal rate. Use visual aids with few words and large images and fonts. Provide written outlines, assignments, instructions, and demonstration summaries and distribute them before the class or other presentation when possible.
  • direct your speaking style and adjust the "pace" of instruction to make information more accessible to a student with a hearing impairment.
  • Some students who are hard of hearing may hear only specific frequencies or sounds within a certain volume range.
  • They may have difficulty following lectures in large halls, particularly if the acoustics cause echoes or if the speaker talks quietly, rapidly, or unclearly. People who have hearing impairments may find it difficult to simultaneously watch demonstrations and follow verbal descriptions, particularly if they are watching a sign language interpreter, a captioning screen, or a speaker's lips. Small group discussions may also be difficult to follow or participate in, particularly if the discussion is fast-paced and unmoderated, since there is often lag time between a speaker's comments and interpretation.
