Keep each day new and exciting, while giving encouragement and security to ask questions.

Teachers really need to make themselves understand all of it's capabilities.

Some students find it beneficial, while others don't find it as reliable.

I've learned it's been around a lot longer than I was aware of and that it can be positive in engaging different learning styles, but negative too, if used with the wrong intentions.

I've learned it has many benefits and will be a useful tool to engage multiple learning styles.

I've learned that it's actually been around a lot longer than I realized.  I think it could be beneficial when used correctly in the learning process, but could also be a hindrance if used inappropriately.

Everything in moderation.  I don't want to get burned out, so I try to have a good balance of work and family life.  We do a lot of things together - especially physically active activities, so we always try to get fresh air and physical activity.

I think story telling is great.  It helps with retaining the material and encourages the engagement of the students through asking questions.

Storytelling can be very beneficial, but make sure to include everyone, have the story appropriate to the topic and don't offend others.

We use storytelling in my classroom all the time.  It helps the students relate the material we're covering to everyday life events.
