We went to the science museum and checked out the submarine tour. It was amazing how sailors could adapt to such a cramped lifestyle while on board such a sub-standard submarine. That fall, a science teacher brought up the topic of submarines in class and my son mentioned his visit to the museum and his submarine tour. Together they were able to lecture the class about submarines. There is nothing better than hands on training.
Students can learn out of a book, but the best way to study is from experience.
For example, connecting Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet to a modern movie version or to the soundtrack of Franco Zeferelli's movie or to the historical accuracy of the times can help students understand Shakespeare and his work. If we fail to touch the humanity of students, we have not really touched them at all. Whereas a student may not understand the subject in one context, then there is the possibility of realization through another. This allows children to develop knowledge into understanding and the ability to use it. The arts will help children to stimulate their minds to communicate their thoughts and ideas.
