      Yes!! I must remember this always! It's so easy to answer questions for students. However, if I keep questioning them, it will allow them to learn on their own.
  • encouraging and allowing students to discover fundamental principles on their own.

      I'm a visual person and I know I like to "see" things for myself. Allowing our students to discover conclusions will be something that they will remember longer than if a teacher "told" them what happens.
  • free play is how children learn about themselves and the world around them. And, if they’re not playing, they’re not learning in all the ways that count most.

      I loved receiving a parent survey from our child's teacher at the beginning of the year. It was a great way to introduce our child with details he may have never shared with his teacher. What a great way to set up some personalization at the start of the year.

      I love this and want to strive for this but this also terrifies me. I'm in the "awareness" stage of learning about PL. My concerns are, How will I truly balance this? Is it the right balance?

      I like that the instructor can still play a role in students' Symbaloo. The examples given are a great way to engage students.
