I think it's important to name this for students and for educators as well, so that we can begin cultivating behaviors that support those who take risks and make mistakes.

I am only a student now, but as someone who wants to be a future teacher I can't think of a better way to make students comfortable and excited in the classroom. Teachers can't forget that, that they expect students to make mistakes in their writing, on tests, and even verbally in front of other students. And I do understand that making mistakes are a part of learning, but teachers should be willing to do the same. I love this!
