[Xmca-l] Re: Positioning and Voice

[White, Phillip]

Many thanks, Larry. I'm confused how i missed it - however, in my experience I would answer Jennifer's question in the affirmative. In my experience, again, this is quite positive with primary age students.
Thanks again.

we ask the same of younger children? ... both that some be more responsible
to share their ideas and other be more responsible to listen and discuss?

Best to all - jen

Phillip, this was the comment that I was exploring further through
expanding towards Bahktin and his understanding of the *object* to be
addressed .
