> **   Teachers communicate well. ** >   The teacher uses effective verbal and nonverbal communication techniques as well as instructional media and technology to foster active inquiry, collaboration, and supportive interaction in the classroom. >  >  Evidence 1: [] [] Rationale 1: My personal finance class had to do research about investing and budgeting. These two websites were given for students to use to do research and to guide them in their financial decisions. This lesson broaden their minds to the importants of sound financial advice and the importants of setting a personal budget and sticking to it. As a teacher I learned that making the lesson as real life as possible and personal to the students that they will then take it more seriously and get a deeper level of learning. KSD 6.K.4 The teacher recognizes the importance of nonverbal, verbal and media communication techniques. Yahoo finance and Mint offer multiple ways to communicate information to students. Some examples are graphs of data, summaries and video. 6.S.3 The teacher knows how to ask questions and stimulate discussion for particular purposes (e.g. probing for learning understanding, helping students articulate their ideas and thinking processes, promoting risk-taking and problemsolving, facilitating factual recall, encouraging convergent and divergent thinking, stimulating     curiosity, helping students to question). During the students research time I will stop my students to give them a chance to share their findings and discuss what others have found. 6.D.2 The teacher values many ways in which people seek to communicate and encourages many modes of communication in the classroom. When my students share their findings on investing or budgeting they can put it on the smartboard for others to see. Sometimes I have students stop working, stand up and rotate from computer to computer to see others screen to see what other are doing. > Standard1 > Standard2 > Standard3 > Standard4 > Standard5 > Standard6 > Standard7 > Standard9 > Standard10
