Those are excellent ideas. I think the act of doing is far more powerful
than just the traditional "chalk and talk". How do you come up with these
ideas? Is there a resource where more of these ideas are listed or are you
just very creative and designed these lesson concepts from your own
experience? Thank you so much for the cave painting and fresco ideas. I
will use them both.
