Academic Club Method
Instead of lectures and textbooks, this format enables a child to become an active part of whatever topic is being studied. Children make, do, act, chant, build and live the material that they could not learn by reading.
Creative Activities
I would like to teach my children through creation, not books only.ÊI want to make with them usable items, not crafts.
Do you have any suggestions?
Constructing
Knowledge
The aim of action learning is to construct knowledge that is
more comprehensive, valid and useful. Action Learning generally
begins with insightful questioning in the light of the learners'
experience which may include experience of very recent actions
and recently introduced programmed knowledge.
Constructing
Knowledge through Inquiry
As the caterpillars grow and change, engage the children
in questions, activities, and conversations. Listen to their
words and evaluate their drawings in order to determine their
understandings. Their curiosity will be there. It is up
to us, as teachers and parents, to generate it even further!
