Class Meeting
First Nations people have used the technique of a Talking Circle for generations to share ideas, resolve conflict, and make sure everyone is heard. We had that opportunity today to discuss some class issues. We used an Oilers flag as our Talking Stick for the person sharing ideas. Every student has the choice to "pass" if they do not want to share, and the other classmates were respectful of that. Everyone else had the responsobility to stay quiet and listen to their classmates.
This is a technique that we will continue to use through the year to better our classroom and ourselves.
