Teaching - August 2006

I will be speaking in front of a group of kids of about 30-50 twice a week. What are some good attention grabbers? What are some little things I can say and do to get the kids to interact and keep their attention on the lesson I teach?

I'm wanting some ideas for little things I can do to make the kids laugh and enjoy a Bible story.

I want to get my masters in teaching elementary education. I don't know what to do and none of the education professors are helpful at my school. I don't understand why some schools require that I am already certified, and others don't. I am so confused, can someone help explain the difference in the programs, and what I need to do from here??

why are you always whining?

if its so bad, why don't you go and be a construction worker, or a welder?

I am at the point in my college career where I have to make this decision... I am currently a Childhood Ed. major with a concentration in Lang. and Cognition. From there I could go on to get my masters in literacy. OR should I become a speech pathology major now and do a concentration in education? Which job has more openings now (I live on Long Island) and which has more room for advancement? Any advice will help! Thanks!

I never liked lectures because they didn't include a typed copy of the lecturer's lecture. The idea of having to try to write down a note about a point I thought might be important, and doing so while hoping not to miss another point that might be uttered while I was writing my note about an earlier point was torture for me. I really couldn't understand the value of that approach to teaching.

Today, I read an article in WebMD about multitasking having a negative effect on learning. With that now known, is their hope that lecturers will finally stop torturing their students?

Incidentally, the article on WebMD indicated that when learning took place in an environment free of distractions, the student's learning was the result of activity in one part of the brain, and when multitasking, the learning was the result of activity in a different part of the brain. Subsequent tests revealed multitasking had a negative effect on retention.

What is the difference between "could you tell him that I called" and "Can you tell him that I called"
When do I use "can" and when do I use "could"
The same thing applies to "will" and "would"
What is the difference. Are the all correct, grammartically?

In my honest opinon Muhammad (PBUH) was the Best of all teachers in all time. The reasons being:
1) It is recognized by Michael Heart in his book on Most Influential people of time that Muhammad (PBUH) was the Most Influential person of all time
2) Muhammad (PBUH ) was an excellent role model in all aspects e.g. father, husband, ruler, teacher, leader, commander, law giver, helper, compassionate,
3) Muhammad (PBUH)'s teaching made Arabs and other Muslims the fouder of all modern sciences, laboratories, hospitals, universities.
4) Muahmmad (PBUH) although could not read and write was given the Best ever Book by the God and he remembered the entire book by heart.His book is a lviing miracle which changed the entire map of the world and brougth utmost peace, tranquility and progress

What books have been absolute hits with male and female middle school students? I want to teach my 7th graders books that a majority of kids in class will REALLY get into. I thought I'd hit on such a book last year with "Stargirl," but half the kids hated it. Go figure. Also, please do not recommend any books that are have vulgar language or themes that are too adult. Thanks.
