This is where reflecting on our own experience in the institute

This is where reflecting on our own experience in the institute is helpful. We can learn a lot by watching each other and ourselves. What happens when the group presentation or group process stops---we immediately look to a friendly face nearby to "play." We talk about our families, our classrooms, the shore, hobbies...we share u-tube sites, music...check out facebook, email...We need to play a bit---it gives, I think, our cognitive unconscious time to process all that we've just taken in.

Students show up at school and we put them through their paces from 8-3:30...one content area after another...free play is looking more and more important to me.
