Comments:
I was able to visit this class during their Leadership Day. When I visited, they
were transitioning from using their Leader In Me Workbooks at their desks to
the carpet for circle time. The students were participating in an activity
where they used a talking stick to introduce themselves and one of the Seven
Habits that helps make them a leader at their school. Two students needed
constant redirection because they were not following the established rules of
the talking stick, namely talking and playing when others were talking. Many
other students were quietly waiting their turns or shy about participating
which we attributed to having visitors in their classroom. The students
completed the activity with constant probing and encouragement from their
teacher.
