 * What this selection illustrates about my learning/why I chose this selection: **

I chose to highlight the section that focuses on using journals and forms of personal communication with students. This is something I hope to add to our notebooks this year. I would like to utilize dialogue journals to personally communicate with students who may have questions. Some students may be hesitant to ask questions in front of the class. By using dialogue journals I can quickly and formatively assess students understanding of a certain learning target. To view my artifact click here: [|Chapter 8 Artifact]
