Colinsmum I'm still reading that link. I like this:
"�Role of teacher (intellectual midwife)
��������� adapt lessons to suit the needs of the individual child.
��������� be aware of the child�s stage of development (testing).
��������� provide stimulation through a variety of tasks.
��������� produce/provide resources,
��������� produce disequilibrium, i.e. a scenario that is outside the child�s current understanding.� E.g. density.
��������� use concrete examples when describing abstract concepts, e.g. ships floating for density, pumping water around��� houses for flow of current in a circuit."
I'm dubious about the other claims regarding ages and stages (which appeared to be debatable anyway), but I like this outline of what a good teacher's job should look like. Nice!
