Chapter 4 & 5

Just as you learn through blogging, so do I. I have falsely believed if I didn't "direct" this blog w/a question, then there would be no depth of learning. Or perhaps I blogged to you in question format b/c this is the way I had always seen modeled? Anyway, the depth of the learning in the blogs for chapters 2 & 3 were really deep and exactly what I had been trying to do when I simply said blog about what you learned. You impressed me and inspired me.

Chapter 4 discusses supporting and promoting student thinking; Chapter 5 is about teaching for understanding and engagement. What do you want to blog about from the chapters?
