My weekly target teaching audience will be my Mayan GB - my tech help desk students. In order to help them fully understand what being proactive means, I will teach by example. I will talk to them about (me) recognizing my need for nutrients and feeling hungry by the end of the school day. Instead of merely letting it continue to happen, I will bring and eat my lunch during Mayan GB help desk working time (school lunch time). I will do my best to chew my food with at least five more chews before swallowing so that I don’t have indigestion. I also may actually have a more relaxed state of being if I eat slower.
As far as the Mayan GB students being proactive, I’d really like to see them being more proactive with their AR Reading. It’s a requirement for them to be keeping up with it outside of our advisory class time. It is something that many of them struggled with last semester. It is something that I’d like to see them be proactive about, but I know they may have other ideas about what they would like to work on. I will definitely discuss with them what they would like to be more proactive about and give them a choice on what to consciously choose to work on.
Note: This week’s teaching will hopefully happen on Thursday during Mayan GB advisory, but I have been off campus for about two weeks on a committee and foresee things may involve virtual (LMS - including an announcement and discussion) communication.
