Unit: Never Work Harder Than Your Students: Balancing the Ratio of Teacher Thinking to Student Thinking

Who is leaving more tired at the end of each day in your classroom? This session will focus on how to build student independence and how to structure learning so that students are bearing the major load of cognitive work, rather than the teacher. Self-reflect on where students need to be doing more of the work in your classroom and learn techniques for shifting the ratio to kids.
