I agree.

Children have a great imagination!

I think the best stories are told when the reader shows expression and makes children feel like they ARE the characters in the book.

Choosing the right books for your students, or letting them choose the book for themselves will make them want to be involved especially when they are familiar with the character's personalities.

Using their imagination to transform a science book into a play takes great skill and motivation

Yes give him a productive reason to be so active.

I agree with you!

I would say it's a fact that people learn best with hands on activities. It becomes about stimulating more senses and in turn keeping lasting memories.

Children are born curious and using their hands and mouth to learn about the world is normal.

Iv'e seen this for myself, but I believe that with creative movement, children who are uncomfortable speaking can continue to express themselves through movement and eventually get comfortable enough to speak out and laugh with other students.

I agree with Vielka. Why are low income schools not afforded the same opportunities?

Using repetition is a good way to get kids to hold on to new vocabulary.

I agree that using songs to teach culture would be more suitable for older learners. If this is used to teach younger students, I think a video showing the children wearing something from their cultural background will help them understand that this is a cultural song.

I agree with this statement because the rhythmic tune of songs will help create memories rather than simply studying vocabulary.

This reminds me of labeling, or even using multiple intelligences to teach. The students are using their visual and audio sense to learn vocabulary from a new language and words are made easy to learn when an image follows.

Iv'e also seen this int he classroom or even at a daycare. Songs are just used to keep noise in the background.

This is true. I think one certified arts teacher to a school is as important as having a nurse.

It's interesting how much more students become in their education when they are able to enjoy it. Teachers should be more creative and incorporate the arts into more subjects throughout the day.

This is true because you can teach a child to read one way, but when they attend a new school a new reading skill replaces it. This can be done over time.

This is interesting because we have survived these events in history but would human kind survive it if all these events happen at once? I would say no because this would be equivalent to a meteor hit.
