Fires in the Bathroom chapter 7

When teaching difficult material you need to do more than just talk about it yourself. You need the students to talk about it, give them feedback and let them reflect on it so you know they understand it. Since I am going to be a history teacher I focused mostly on the section with advice for teaching history. What I found most important was to help the student visualize history and to focus on the most important question of history rather than just all of the names and dates. Having the students visualize history with guest speakers and real life artifacts will make them understand things better and connect with them rather than just reading about it in a textbook. The idea that I liked the most and that I know I will use is to seek out your student’s opinions and make them defend them. I know I will you use this because I love the idea of a class debate.
