KVS: Teaching in the Moment

Observing students in process is important - identify what they need in the moment - and decide how to teach it - teach students by:

• naming what they are doing
• offering advice to help move the group or individuals forward by - asking critical questions,using multiple ways of knowing, talking with or back to texts
  
• demonstrating new inquiry (CL) practices - reading critically,engaging in democratic dialogs,choosing language that supports collaborative Inquiry, introducing other CLs
  

Introducing other CLs

• counternarratives to stories told - in newspapers, magazines, essays, books, etc...
  
• Talking POints (organize your thoughts before speaking)
• Note taking -what's important?
  
• Committees - we don't get stuff done alone - form a committee to take it forward to action
