 To impart the information about a great artist “Rembrandt” to the students by: 1) Using new questioning strategies to promote critical thinking. 2) Focus on encouraging instead of praising. 3) Encourage to work with collaboration and interaction to get the best answers and results.

ChallengesSolutions The Principal may not agree with the new approach. I will share my ideas and strategies with her to convince her to her satisfaction. There may be some students without a computer at home. I’ll take them to the computer lab after school to get the information. Some parents may not agree to let their children stay back after school. I’ll create a Newsletter to inform parents about my new strategies and plans. Some students may not be willing to work with specific students. I’ll group them according to their own choice.
