I would like to reflect on my visit to Aldo this past Monday. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and it is most definitely different than the traditional classroom. I was most entertained by the creativity used within a lot of the teaching tactics. For instance, as we observed the students make journal entries they were able to use clothespins decorated as astronauts, reminding the students to put spaces in between all of their words, using the "spacers." In addition, the teacher did not correct any of the work done by the students. She gave them a certain amount of time for an entry without focusing on too many specifics. Moreover, the students did not have to write with pencil which I found astounding, mostly because, I never gave much thought to changing up such a simple concept. The students were allowed to write with markers making the experience all that more interesting and fun. Overall, I learned a lot from my time there and look forward to going back.
