DoL1 Focus Helping students Develop Positive Attitudes and Perceptions about Classroom Climate

By helping students feel comfortable in their own classroom it is vital that teachers have knowledge of the major disruptions to the students learning areas.

DoL5 Focus Habits of Mind
Maintain an Open Mind. By maintaining an open mind students can become more creative with topics in class especially linking into traditional stories and art lessons. By maintaining an open mind the students are able to give you their own opinion what they think will happen next in the story other than what is written on the page also with art this allows them to elaborate when given a sheet of paper what would work together and what wouldnt. This critical thinking topic is vital in classrooms as it is a great developmental stage for students to touch on as creativity is something not touched on as much in classrooms in todays society.
