Exit Slip: Sept 16th

 Garden-Based Learning

 Personally speaking, I love idea of having class outside. It does not have to be something fancy or for a very long time, just being outside can be a new environment for students that they can be more engaged. Having read somewhere that students of our target audience have 40 to 50 minutes focus time at max while class itself is well over 60 minutes (also, expecting maximum length of attention is being too optimistic), I think having these kind of exercise outside can serve as a good needed break  that is also relevant for the class as well. 

I really did enjoy the sun dial activity because it is more physically involving. We can associate our own behaviour to the concepts we learned, which help us learn, understand and remember for the long time.
