Blog post #7 from Marie



1. According to Freire, “Helping students to name their questions while modeling the kind of curiosity and enthusiasm for discovering the undiscovered should be central to every classroom and home in the world.” How can as teachers bring this “epistemological curiosity” into our classroom? What can we take from the illustrations of sensing gaps discussed in “Understanding the Students We Teach: Poverty in the Classroom” and implement it?

2. Rachel Branham talks about the importance of addressing equality in the public-school system. How can we as art teachers embrace equality in our classroom?

3. Branham talked about her experiences and questioning herself as a teacher. What does make a good teacher? How can we avoid an incidence like Brahman’s reaction and disciplinary actions towards the student who used profanity?
