Sue A. KuhnKuhn considers herself a facilitator as much as a teacher who strives to involve all of her students in learning and teaching.In my classroom we do lots of sharing.Third-graders still love show and tell.I allow classmates to ask questions about what others are sharing, giving them a stage for self-expression..
Literature circle is a favorite time of day in Kuhn's classroom.The children come to the group on their designated day with a book that they have been reading.
