In class on Thursday(9/9/10) We watched a video called teaching from the grave. It was about a teacher who took his students to the grave yard in the town and let them study the tomb stones. This is some of my thoughts on the video.
I believe that this method of teaching is actually a very good method. Watching the first few seconds of the video I thought to myself there is no way this method of teaching was ever going to work. As the video went I it seem that I was very wrong in my statement above. Not only did the kids like what they were doing but they seem to be really enjoying it was well. Also when the student were interviewed they seemed to be very knowledgeable about the subject at hand. The students were very respecful of the graves as well when doing the research which I thought was a very good thing. I thought it was really cool to see how they took the data from the graves and put them into chart form and then presented them. It concluded in there project in a great way! As for the teacher of this class I think he did an outstanding job in teaching these children in this lesson.
