A2: Student-centered, hands-on activities are great in keeping students engaged and address multiple learning styles. If students can make a personal connection then they tend to be more interested in the topic and ultimately more likely to remember it.

A1: People are naturally curious beings. Inquiry-based learning gives students the freedom to discover new things while also encouraging them to take ownership of their own learning.
#FMSDwrites2learn20 A1 People write for all purposes. It is an essential part of life. Regardless of the subject, you teach or what time constraints you have incorporating well-planned writing activities into your lessons will increase student achievement and understanding.
