I wish I had the nerve to do this: The Sequel

Filed Under General 

It seems I’m finding a few videos on things I could do to help my students learn. This is the second one that I wish I had the nerve to try.

This little video shows a Spanish teacher (or two?) dancing around their class - apparently with the students still there - conjugating verbs. While it seems improbable, it also does create a memorable experience, and the students would certainly remember what you mean when you talk about verb conjugations.

I’ve had my class do audio recordings which we posted on the Net. Seeing these recent videos, I can’t help but wonder how hard it would be to do a video. Maybe you can’t do it with your students (there’s so many rules about putting students’ pictures in public places that it might not be worth trying) but that doesn’t mean I couldn’t try something myself, or maybe recruit someone to help.  Granted, I can’t sing, I can’t dance, and I can’t play any music, but that doesn’t have to stop me, does it? The wheels in my head are turning.
