So this anchor chart I created following a lesson my colleague led and I observed about ways people can notice their inner thoughts and record tracks of them in efficient ways. In all my years of teaching, I have never received an email from a student who was impressed by an anchor chart. Today was a first. One of my students went home, had taken a picture of this anchor chart and sent me an email to thank me for it. He told me he really liked it and thought it was helpful. I am convinced that learning to capture ideas in visual ways is changing my teaching.
