According to Robyn Jackson, “When the sculptor first
meets the hunk of rock, it is difficult to imagine that rock
as a beautiful work of art. But, the sculptor works at it a little at a time, a chip here, an adjustment there, until slowly, things begin to take
shape.
The same goes with teaching.”
Change
Do we start where our students are? Do we know where they are going? Do we expect them to get there? Do we explain to them how we will
get there? Do we measure their progress and
give them feedback? Do we stay focused? Do we take the quickest most direct
route? Do we work harder than our
students?
