Danielle and Sari are joined by Larry Edward Duncan, Teacher at Hawkins Elementary School in Mississippi. Larry explains how his classroom is a safe-haven, and how he encourages students to make mistakes. He also dives into “Friday Facetime,” his version of weekly data chats with students. Although these conversations typically happen in the classroom, Larry shares how they could happen virtually. Learn about how Larry balances growth and proficiency and encourages his students to own their learning.
