Måndag is Norwegian for Monday. I would like to comment on how nice it is to use a Norwegian keyboard. Everything is pretty much where it is supposed to be (at least the letters) but punctuation and stuff is all mixed up. The worst is either the ' is a key farther away or that you have to hit "alt gr" and then 2 in order to get a @ because you get " when you just do shift+2. Then the left shift is the size of a normal key which is something new. But hey, just get used to it.
One of the things that I want to comment on
today is a teaching strategy that I tried out today. I have always heard that students need to
interact with the subject content. That
is what I had the students doing today.
Our topic for the day was graphing equations after getting a table of
values. I had already prepared the
graphs beforehand. What I had the
students doing was going up to the front and putting their finger on where the
point was going to show up. I felt like
it was effective because then it had the students up at the board trying to
plot points. It was a nice was to
provide formative assessment whether that student understands how to plot
points on a graph. It would have also
been fine if a student would have gotten it wrong because then we could have
talked about why they did what they did.
I want to give a shout out to my housemates. They have been doing a great job of cooking food! I really appreciate their time and effort that they have put in to making dinners and such.
