You may have missed the live session with Aimée Skidmore earlier this week, and that’s completely fine.
But here’s a question that came out of it that might be worth a quick reflection:
In your classroom, who is doing most of the thinking?
Because in many cases, students are not disengaged…they’ve just learned to wait.
If that question lands, you might find the replay useful (no need to watch all of it,even 10 minutes can shift how you see your lesson):

Aimée also shared a few practical resources you can explore when you have time:👉 https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1o-J9rhanQhdlZFCMYDSmREH5UZGQjXa-
One idea that stood out:
Students can be active, complete tasks, and still not own their learning.
Ownership starts when they think, decide, question, not just follow.
If you’re curious to go further, Aimée is running a short 3-session series where you actually try one shift in your classroom each week and see what happens:

No pressure at all — just sharing in case it’s helpful.
Curious to hear:
🍀Where do you feel you are still doing a lot of the thinking in your lessons?
