A skilled teacher uses a variety of methods.<br /><br />In Cambridge, there's actually daycare for teen parents at the high school. In the fall, I took attendance and was told the student was on maternity leave.Theresa Milsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03477761307315565259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3801207462566510326.post-37502768516618818482011-05-23T19:24:29.847-07:002011-05-23T19:24:29.847-07:00The quote at the top of this post is so true.

It was a great idea with good intentions, but how it would affect above average students was not taken into much consideration. My father rants about this often.<br /><br />In Oklahoma, since we have such a high teen pregnancy rate, we are required to take a class called Skills for Adolescence in the seventh grade. A kid once asked if a certain female organ could sneeze...<br /><br />I am a visual learner as well.Brooke R.

And control your tone for the various age groups.<br />I imagine that skill could have handy everyday applications. <br />Subs basically have to be discworld witches. ; jAvohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15808959359850145003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3801207462566510326.post-54803013810581146902010-07-29T05:43:23.829-07:002010-07-29T05:43:23.829-07:00@ Alesa, interesting how different it is in France...@ Alesa, interesting how different it is in France.<br /><br />I like varying my teaching methods in an attempt so everyone get it.Theresa Milsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03477761307315565259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3801207462566510326.post-57037073209933390402010-07-29T05:17:20.015-07:002010-07-29T05:17:20.015-07:00That wouldn't work in France...

Every body does the same thing the same way... <br />-<br />On a tangential note, it's also interesting to learn and study one's own teaching styles, their strong suits in imparting knowledge to others. Even amongst children you can observe blatant differences, between the explanations of two children both explaining how to do any given thing eg play a game. Some can explain the rules and grasp what a beginner will have difficulty understanding, others can't do it at all. : jAvohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15808959359850145003noreply@blogger.com
