Yep! I am starting small. Check out the bottom of page 14. I started tweaking my lessons by using the ideas in Ellin's last paragraph. Good stuff! Jennifer In a message dated 9/29/2008 7:22:53 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
I read To Understand this summer and now that the school year has started I'm finding it difficult to put my finger on where exactly I should be practical and diligent about implementing Ellin's ideas. I've increased wait time in a major way, I have discussed savoring the struggle with my students, but I feel like I'm barely skimming the surface of what I learned and took away from her book in my classroom. Does anyone else feel the same? Anyone have any suggestions? **************Looking for simple solutions to your real-life financial challenges?
