As the teacher, I do prefer to act as the facilitator. I really liked the idea of moving students into a variety of seating arrangements to encourage active talking and listenting, but know I will have to wait until COVID restrictions lift. As the teacher, it is natural to call on prior knowledge which also supports time for clarification. Building a classroom culture of inclusivity knowing that everyone supports you and that there is enough abundance for everyone is one of my goals.
I have learned in plannning your lessons you must anchored in prior knowledge, create tasks that draws multiple ideas and provide multiple path for students, anticipate failure after productive struggle and build tiime for failure intyo lesson design. You must build a classroom culture that has a strong abundance, because students will ask questions. As a teacher you allow students to complete task on their own and you will instruct the students in the missing information, ask guiding questions, so they can figure out the solution.
