Chapter 5: Teaching to the Individual, Working with the Group

The eye popper in this chapter was a quote from Montoya, “If a teacher sees a quiet kid like me raise their hand, the teacher should call on that person right away” (pg 89). It is referring to how a teacher needs to be in tune with how all students act on a daily basis.

The reason this caught my eye is I always get a smile on my face when a quiet student actually wants to participate. I think it is important for the teacher to know what students always have their hand up and when a new hand is raised. This will let the quiet student get a chance to participate.
