I believe ensuring there is flow in the classroom is an
important element to keep students interested in schoolwork and wanting to
learn more. However, I also believe, as Amber does with ROWE, that it will be
difficult to maintain flow in a classroom because the teacher will have to
differentiate for each student. I know it will be a struggle to construct the perfect activity to please each student with every single lesson, but I will be able to work at this by
differentiating instruction and activities to make sure all students needs are
met throughout the year. As a teacher, it will be important for me to get to
know students and their abilities in order to establish a consistent flow. I
will have to spend an adequate amount of time planning different lessons to fit
the needs of all of my students and keep the activities interesting.
Maintaining flow in my classroom will be an important part
in working toward mastery. I really liked the quote that “mastery is a mindset.”
I believe that no one person will ever truly master the art of teaching because
there will always be room for improvement, whether it is learning a new
strategy or just a different way to teach a lesson. Especially in today’s world
with the amount of technology there will always be something new that a teacher
can integrate into the classroom that will result in becoming a better teacher.
