    A very skilled and mindful teacher - he using excellent communication skills, has good content, and appears to be excellent with using group process, especially when teaching math.

    He is very patient with the kids and spends a lot of time at the beginning talking about appropriate behavior and good social skills.

    This is a great method of teaching. By integrating intellectual, social, and emotional cognitive skills, students can learn the way that is best for them!

    I agree with both who like this and with those who say math should not be taught like this. What is shown in the video - the group activities - are all valuable exercises for all the parties: those who are observed and critiqued, those who are being helped and those who are observing and giving suggestions. The issue is: the video did NOT show how the teacher delivers direct instruction. This part - the teaching and the methodical explanation delivered in a well-thought-through manner, to ensure that full curriculum is covered over time, and that concepts are delivered in a certain order to allow a progression from smaller concepts to more complex ones - is INTEGRAL part of teaching math or any subject for that matter. The video is good for reinforcement" and 'drill and practice"" , but the 'developmental' activities sill need to be 'delivered by the teacher' and 'executed individually by the student'. Otherwise huge gaps in knowledge result.

    "...because no matter what I say, or try to push... unless kids own it, it's not going to matter..." (3:45 in video context)
    Smart Kids Robotics, St. Louis, MO, utilizes similar strategies to encourage adaptive expertise and promote kids' confidence to pursue their ideas and realize their accomplishments.
    Excellent work!

    This teacher needs to be training teachers around the USA. His ability and patience to treat these children with respect and the manner in which he positions each child to succeed is repeatable. Hat's off...

  • @karengartland9842

    This is an amazing video! I wish that this teacher could clone himself and be in every district, demonstrating what he gets students to do with their thinking. Awesome!
