I wish there was more active learning at school. That way we wouldn’t be stuck sitting in classrooms all day long. Active learning doesn’t have to be playing foursquare or hopscotch. Kids can actively learn by going outside and studying different species in nature for science class, or count how many maple trees are in one area and divide it evenly between their classmates for math. Active learning can also be implanted into fitness the class could go for a run and when you get back you can turn it into a math problem. If Jack ran 10 miles, Jamie ran 5 miles more than Cassandra but two miles less than Jack how many miles did they run total. Why can’t we do that? That would be so much better than having to sit quietly at a desk all day. |
