Question

I cannot remember too many specifics of what I was taught in school but I do remember learning the layers of the earth—inner core(地核) outer core mantle crust. I think it’s rather humorous that I know these because studying the earth is not exactly something that would interest me. The only subjects I enjoyed in school were art and spelling. Every other subject I seemed to tune out. Anyway the reason I learned the layer of the earth and actually enjoyed learning them was because my 6^th grade teacher told us that she was going to make an ice-cream earth. For the entire week I tried to imagine how in the world she was going to do this. She had us memorize the layers so that we would be able to tell her the names of them before we would get some ice-cream that Friday.

       Friday came and everyone was excited. I was even more excited that I could tell the teacher the names of each layer. She got a big bowl lined it with a chocolate cracker crust then three layers of different colored ice-cream. I thought it was so cool that the crust was the crust.

       This shows me that taking the time to teach creatively is worth it because unique activities are what students will learn rather then simply reading everything from a text or listening to lecture done in black and white.
