06.25.14Culture of Error Phrases
As Doug has described frequently in the blog and forthcoming in Chapter 2 of Teach Like a Champion 2.0, your ability to effectively Check For Understanding largely depends on whether or not, you, the teacher, have established a strong Culture of Error—an environment where students feel safe revealing and learning from their mistakes. One of the most effective ways to build this kind of culture is by intentionally planning out what you’ll say to students during your lessons—especially when they make mistakes or take academic risks.
