About me

Activity

I have been re-inspired from taking this mini course on various ways to teach Medical Terminology. I think am gonna try "Charades" with my students and see all the smiles.

At least 80% of the students I see are visual. Many times I have them come to the board and actually draw what they think they have learned. It again steps them out of the box and we laugh and all learn together.
I use crossword puzzles for a "change of pace" not for every chapter...but a pop-up for a homework assignment and when it comes up the students enjoy the chance for a change of pace.
I really think that this is good and healthy! It came to mind to continue to think of varied learning styles that go along with the seasons.

I found the lessons to be most valuable and reconfirming. The topic I learned the most from was handling an angry student. Although this does not happen often, understanding the techniques with validation was most assuring.
