I learned from that and from watching others teach. After several years teaching fourth graders, I transferred to the first grade. I only survived my first year of teaching first grade because I was teamed with an experienced teacher who mentored and coached me through the process. Without this, I would have been in trouble. I call this the celebration of perseverance.
Good teachers use celebration all the time in the classroom.
I found one teacher who instructs her students on how to do the wave from left to right, then front to back. When a student does something outstanding, the teacher has the class give that student a class wave. Unfortunately, when the teacher has a success or does something outstanding, no one celebrates that success. But the mentoring program itself creates an excellent opportunity for the beginning teacher and the mentor to acknowledge success. When I was teaching first grade, I discovered that learning how to read was a miracle.
