Journal #3

Write about one of the techniques that seem to be more feasible and convincing for you to use in your own teaching?

SOCIAL INTERACTIVE TECHNIQUE: Activity of Show and Tell 

     If you teach young children you know they always have something to tell you and to share with the class. The minute they see you, they start telling you a million of things all at once.  Although one loves to hear their news, jokes, sad and happy stories, it takes time away from getting started with your instuctional class. For years, I like to use show and tell activites as a way to use their excitement about sharing their different experiences. This has become a class favorite. Students love sharing about themselves and special news.  At the same time they are interacting and developing their public speaking skills. In the beginning of the year I give them sentences starters to help them get starter.  As I said, this interactive activity is a favorite for all my students in my classroom and parents love it too because they get to share their child's experience at home. It's also more meaningful for parents to see their child actual work.  

     A good follow up activities is to have them write about their show and tell experience and post them up in the classroom. During class breaks the students interacts their written news or stories that have been posted.  These activities are a great way to interact and communicate with my students!   Don't be surprise about how much you can learn from your students too!
