Chapter 6: Organizing Relationships for Learning

This chapter is really informative in how middle school teams work. Initially it talks about how student teacher relationships are key to successful students in the middle school. As you continued the reading, it talked about the ingredients that you need in order to have a successful team middle school. Two key things that really stood out to me were the team size, and the looping feature. The size of a team is something that is important if you want to have a successful team in the middle school. Because you want to be able to know all of the students in your classroom. The looping feature is a really good idea as well, because that way, you have students not for just one year. This allows you to be able to build trusting relationships with the students, and watch them grow. All in all this chapter was very informative, and will definitely help our team in middle education form a unit that will be successful for our “students”
