Smash Notes

If you want to engage a student that is not paying attention, it helps to call on them with a question, and even if they cannot answer the question, once someone else provided the answer, it's important to circle back and ask the first student to repeat. By doing this consistently, over time, the class learns to expect questions at all times, but also that non-knowing does not put on one a tough position, and it is okay to make mistakes.
