iTunes II

The Edible school was about a school " Martin Luther King Jr" school uses their garden to teach different subjects. When they are doing a experiment with a pumpkin they were integrating social studies and math. They also understand how to have responsibility and they teaches the students how to prepare for the world as well. The learn about the diversity of the ecosystem and building community by helping each other. Where one child is gifted in math or science, other students may be gifted in the garden. The garden started by having a healthier lunch for the students and evolved into other things.
Being a teacher using this style of teaching could be fun. When you see a students learning because of a unconventional way is awesome. You can see that using standard methods can help but having the students help in the lesson will make them feel like they were apart of the process.

A night in the Global Village was about a group of students who had to live in different living experiences. Rocky Mountain School does this every year. The student had to live in poor conditions and had to beg for water and food. This video has taught me that there is still teachers in this world who is trying to teach their students right. I feel that this is a good learning experience for all students .
