2nd Question Coming up next!

I think that is why I LOVE ... It involves you visually, actively, and with sound.

I am a T who prefers hands on. But I also want to see it and hear it, but I have to use it to really get it
-
It is all a theory until you try it for yourself.
-
I look forward to having hands on experience with you teaching me some things
-
Not sure what happened to Q2....hmmm
-
I like hands-on too, but the Ts sometimes seem reluctant to move...maybe b/c PD is on Wednesday after school????
-
-
I train a lot of Ts & they need reinforcement just like Ss. Learning something new can be scary.
-
I don't particularly want to move, I want my hands on and trying. https://t.co/Xfxzi8MBtn

-

Q7: - Have you thought about a virtual field trip to a historical place, another country, or even .. https://t.co/zA5V4vvPea
