I thought that as a teacher, I would utilize all the knowledge I learned from all the research I studied in my linguistics and education classes in college. Instead, I find myself utilizing skills from every area of my life BUT my classes.
Case in point: I have somehow become the adviser for our department's dance club. I thought I would just have to oversee it and let the student leaders do their thing.
Nope.
I find that not only do I have to learn the dances, I also have to teach them!
So of course, I started off simple. I thought teaching them the Jump On It dance, as seen in the Fresh Prince of Bel Air, would be a good introduction to dance and to western culture...
Looks like we've got a long ways to go...
This is priceless! I think you've gotta go for a classic next...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sN62PAKoBfE
