Narrative and Opinion Writing with Learning Experiments 044

<p>What are "Learning Experiments," you ask?</p> <p>Well, in my classroom, they were systematic and super-fun, small changes that my students and I made to our learning environment to create the conditions for optimal learning.</p> <p>In plain English, that meant doing small things like working in different spaces around the classroom or changing the kinds of lighting we were using in our classroom to see how that impacted students' ability to focus.</p> <p>These changes led to some pretty inspired writing for my students - so much so, that I decided I needed to create a writing unit for you that you can try in your classroom, too! </p> <p>To get the Show Notes for this episode, just go to: <span style= "color: #ff00b0;"><a style="color: #ff00b0;" href= "https://www.drlorifriesen.com/blog/learning-experiments">https://www.drlorifriesen.com/blog/learning-experiments</a> </span></p> <p>Check out related products on my TpT store (Beginning Teacher Talk): <span style="color: #ff00b0;"><a style="color: #ff00b0;" href= "https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Beginning-Teacher-Talk" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Beginning-Teacher-Talk</a></span></p> <p>Connect with me on Pinterest: <span style= "color: #ff00b0;"><a style="color: #ff00b0;" href= "https://www.pinterest.com/drlorifriesen/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">https://www.pinterest.com/drlorifriesen/</a></span></p> <p>Connect with me on Instagram:<br /> <span style="color: #ff00b0;"><a style="color: #ff00b0;" href= "https://www.instagram.com/drlorifriesen">https://www.instagram.com/drlorifriesen</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p> <p>If the Beginning Teacher Talk podcast is helping you in your teaching and if you're feeling extra loving, I would be so grateful if you would leave a positive review for the show!
