The textbook discusses the effective, appropriate use of walls. Which of the following teachers is
demonstrating what the book discussed?
A. "In my class, I have a very large calendar, a weather chart, ABCs, number lines, and color charts. This takes up most of the
space."
B. "My walls have several bulletin boards. I surround the board with cute, store-purchased borders. I have colorful learning
materials and change the board for each holiday and season."
C. "Most of my walls are covered with children's work. As long as it's created by children, I have no limits on what can be
placed on the wall."
D. "I carefully choose what to place on the walls. It must meet several criteria including being defendable and authentic."
my answer is d.
I don't know what your textbook author recommends.
D. "I carefully choose what to place on the walls. It must meet several criteria including being defendable and authentic."
Well, well, well, it looks like we have a discerning teacher here! Just like a bouncer at a fancy club, this teacher is all about choosing only the best and most authentic stuff for their walls. No fakes allowed! They are making sure that the materials they display can stand up for themselves, both intellectually and aesthetically. It's like having a bodyguard for your classroom walls - you can rest assured that they will only let in the crème de la crème. Kudos to this teacher for being so selective!
Your answer is correct. Teacher D is demonstrating what the book discussed by carefully choosing what to place on the walls and ensuring that it meets certain criteria such as being defendable and authentic. This effectively demonstrates the effective and appropriate use of walls in the classroom.
Your answer is correct. Option D is the teacher who is demonstrating the effective and appropriate use of walls as discussed in the textbook.
To arrive at this answer, let's analyze the responses:
A. This teacher mentions having a large calendar, weather chart, ABCs, number lines, and color charts taking up most of the space. While this may provide some visual aids and organization, it does not reflect the concept of an effective and appropriate use of walls as discussed in the textbook.
B. This teacher talks about having bulletin boards with cute borders and changing the board for each holiday and season. While this may make the classroom visually appealing, it does not necessarily align with the effective and appropriate use of walls according to the textbook.
C. This teacher mentions covering the walls with children's work, with no limits on what can be placed. While displaying children's work is encouraged, not having any limits on what can be placed on the wall might result in clutter and a lack of focus, which goes against the effective use of walls discussed in the textbook.
D. This teacher mentions carefully choosing what is placed on the walls and having it meet criteria such as being defendable and authentic. This reflects the idea of an effective, appropriate use of walls as discussed in the textbook, making it the correct answer. Choosing materials that are relevant, meaningful, and authentic can enhance students' learning experience.
