Leanna

I hope that I am allowd to critique on the blog....but since it's going to be edited anyways I thought I would. I just wanted to post how awesome I think Leanna is. I have learnt alot from her class. I haven't necessarily learnt what she wanted me too (or maybe I did) but I learnt alot of valuable stuff. I learnt the importance of open communication in the classroom; I learnt that it's OK to call your teacher by their first name and that there is still respect; I learnt that it's really beneficial to be honest with your students, it helps to develop trust; I learnt it's important to give positive feedback and promptly; I learnt it's good to question the system and try to make a change; I learnt it's really important to think about how you are going to assess learning; and I learnt that teachers (even though we were told it can't happen) can be cool. So thanks Leanna and because this isn't a mark based class no one can accuse me of sucking up, I am only being honest. And it's nice for teachers to know that they are appreciated especially when they work hard at something, like Leanna obviously did!
