Methods and Strategies: Teaching About Animals
Mon, Dec 11, 2017 2:02 PM
Article Review
One thing I learned from this article is that children and teachers have very different views about animals. I read this article prior to teaching so I as a teacher could have a better understanding on how children interpret animals. This article stated that when students were given a task of naming 10 animals they listed mammals over any other kind of animal. This is important because it shows that students need to be taught other kinds of animals other than just the most common ones we see in zoos or in out and about in the wild. the author shows a need to address these misconceptions but doesn't provide examples of how to help.
