Case: Thumbs Down
I was observing a class of first graders a few years back and the teacher had the students all sitting on the floor around her. She had them come up to the board one at a time and answer a math question. She would then ask the class if they thought the answer was right or wrong and they were supposed to be indicate by giving the child a thumbs up or thumbs down signal. I was student teaching then and it just struck a nerve in me that a first grade teacher would have an entire class giving a child thumbs down if they were wrong. This seemed very emotionally disturbing to me. Does anyone do this or find a problem with this with students that are so young?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This can be a useful strategy for students of all ages. As previously mentioned, it depends on how the students are using the strategy. One idea is for student to hold their thumb up, thumb down, or thumb sideways close to their chest. This makes it easy for the teacher to see, but doesn't broadcast to the class or classmate their response. |
