Small changes in the way we interact with children can make an impression on them.

An awesome text! I liked it a lot since I have just started my teaching practicum, so it is important to take advices from other people who have experience, or from texts like this. It talks about 7 tips for novice teachers. The tips that I liked the most were "4. Use technology wisely", and "6. Use rubrics". I totally agree with these; technology can help the work of a teacher (they can use it for everything), but the big challenge is that a lot of people do not know much about how to use techonology appropriately, the majority of them only use it for social Networks. In addition, in relation to the rubrics, it is an useful way of grading; you can give feedback to your students easily, and you already have the aspects that you are going to grade. I invite you to read the other tips, they are interesting!

Students generally find writing experiences to be artificial. A common outcome of that artificiality is that teachers feel disappointed in the quality of writing turned in because the students are capable of better results. There are many components to improving writing skills through the writing process. The journey requires a destination, a Friday Night Lights event where students demonstrate what they have learned to an authentic audience.
