Hello Mattie,
It sounds like you are are doing at great job of incorporating VTS into your teaching practices. Too be honest, while reflecting on my teaching, I think this is something I need to improve on. This class is really showing me the many benefits of incorporating art into my teaching, and I am learning about many easy, effective, and beneficial ways to do this in my classroom. I love that you mentioned this this could enhance their ability to predict, which is another added benefit to using this strategy. And that you added that there is no embarrassment in being wrong. I am a special education teacher and I often find that my students are not very engagement, and many times this is from years of trying to get involved in the class and being told they are wrong. With this process, there is no right and wrong. Everyone has the opportunity to give their input, to grow as learners, and to feel good about themselves. Thanks for sharing!
