THE PARABLE OF THE STONES
A man was out walking in the desert when a
voice said to him, "Pick up some pebbles
and put them in your pocket, and tomorrow
you will be both happy and sad."
The man obeyed. He stooped down and
picked up a handful of pebbles and put
them in his pocket. The next morning he
reached into his pocket and found
diamonds, sapphires, rubies and emeralds.
And he was both happy and sad.
Happy he had taken some –
sad that he hadn't taken more.

@SMARTERTEACHER or @ScienceRoom229
• Students can take ownership of their learning.
• Teachers can create or select educationally entertaining
videos to capture student attention, instead of having
students absorb through textbooks and homework
problems.
• The classroom becomes a student centered learning
environment, rather than teacher directed a content driven.
• Students receive instant feedback in class as they are
problem solving.

• Students are not as frustrated because they can ask
questions immediately and work through confusion.
• Teachers can revisit concepts that trip-up students and
reform the pace of the lesson plan based on feedback.
• Students do not have to rely on parents, tutors or
potentially inaccurate internet sources to work through
tough problems.
• Teachers can provide options to students with different
learning styles and offer more one-on-one time.

• Students who are absent or miss class due to school
activities have access to the content delivery outside of
the classroom.
• Administrators, colleagues and parents have access to
the content being delivered in your classroom.
• More time to allow for student involvement in Project
Based Learning, Inquiry Based Learning, and
Gamification.
• Development of Critical Thinking, Communication and
Collaborative skill sets through increased interaction
between students and teachers in the classroom.
