Post micro-teaching thoughts...

It was certainly fun and enjoyable to learn about beading, stress relief tips, and even techniques for pressing acupuncture points when you are not feeling well!    We can certainly learn and teach alot in ten minutes.    Also with adequate preparation, and not being tiresome of bringing in the right supplies, it is possible to do some very exciting demonstrations within the four walls of a classroom!   At the same time I realise that it is also easy to misjudge our use of time even when we do our  lesson plan.    After I taught the three different things we can do with the chopsticks wrapper, we still had some time left.   So we ended up also talking about how to use the chopstick, and even how to make a toothpick out of a chopstick!     It is much easier to teach to a table of adults whom we already know.   They are supportive and helpful.   I wonder how teaching in high-school will be really like ...
