I went to the school at her behest. The results were mixed; partly because the students hadn't been prepared for this, partly because I had only 40 minutes per class. Their follow-up letters were most interesting - they seemed to think that they shouldn't have "bad" thoughts! <BR/><BR/>Also they only worked with the yellow card. Their teacher gave a worksheet to a couple of kids who were confused, and they not only liked using it, they thought their peers would too.<BR/><BR/>I haven't received any parent feedback.<BR/><BR/>Well, we learned a lot, their teacher and I, and we'll do it differently next time. If you're a School graduate you can participate in the Education forum at instituteforthework.com for updates on how educaors are using The Work with with faculty, students and parents.Carol L.

What kind of feedback are you getting? What were parent responses? Have there been transformations with staff?Laura O'Reilly, MLShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15768525273680505460noreply@blogger.com
