[MOSAIC] New problem....

[Joy]

William and Carolyn,
  I like Carolyn's suggestion, but would like to take it one step further. Show them something you KNOW they will HATE. Hate is such a strong emotion, and very often kids can find lots of derisive things to say, especially at this age. It's not cool to have a favorite; if you pick the "wrong" favorite, you subject yourself to criticism of your peers. Although eighth grade students say they want to be individuals, they really want to be part of the group, and will do almost anything to gain or maintain group status.

  How children learn is as important as what they learn: process and content go hand in hand. http://www.responsiveclassroom.org
