It was a very good class with all the students helping each other, and for me, it is a rewarding and invigorating experience.
Folks, noticing that I teach both adults and kids, ask "what's the difference between the two?" Learning at its best is always a matter of play.
That's why Kindergarten is important, even today. It utilized the natural interest and engagement of the kids, doing real things and could serve as a model for the reinvigoration of all schooling.
At ESSA. The tools are real, the materials are real. All the senses are engaged, and compare that to public school classrooms where kids are watching the clock, hoping to hear the bell and get the hell out.
Make, fix and create...
