Teachers Learn By Doing

Teachers just like students do learn by doing. I find that when I am in a workshop and I can actually see a presentation, take notes, and make something to use in my classroom I have learned. I make every effert to do this with my third graders. When I plan I try to incoorporate hands-on project based activities to engage my students and have them see how they learn and produce a project that show themselves and myself that they have learned what was stated for them to learn. I try to incorporate projects, fill out a graphic organziers, watch video clips or power point presentations when I introduce a new concept.
I find that when I get to do the same things that I provide my students the opportunity to accomplish in my class I walk out with a new knowledge that we all know helps our students and us in the end.
