I could not tell exactly way teaching is great. It is hard to place such a feeling. Perhaps is it the smiles you get from the students when they are learning something new. Maybe it is the feeling of getting to see the next generation grow before your eyes. Or it could even be just the feeling of teaching, that satisfied feeling of giving your knowledge to others. It could even be all of the above. Teaching is just something that you cannot take away as it is need by everyone. It is what makes it so malleable.
In my class, there were many teaching strategies that we went through in order to learn ourselves. Some of them I enjoyed and others I found more difficult. Here is a list of my top five strategies for learning and why I think they are good.
Number Five:
Word it Out
I thought that this lesson was rally creative. I liked going through the videos and articles to find sentences or phrases that stuck out to me. Adding them to the word it out was fun too, I got to design the words and colors to be exactly as I intended them to be. I think I enjoyed the creative side of this project, and it gave me a sense of nostalgia, as I remember everyone making art like this from way back when. I also added my word it out from class that I did to this blog.

Number Four:
Black Out Poem
I remember doing blackout poems in high school and just for fun, so I enjoyed this lesson strategy. I liked going through and adding or deleting words in order to achieve the effect I liked. I had just earlier posted my own blackout poem and that is the one I refer to. It helps with seeing the base words of any article, reading, song or novel. When you take away the words that help make the sentences you can see the message behind those words. Sometimes there is meant to be one, and sometimes you can just make you own out of the words.
